You can use a FIELD to find the length of a line.

I have just tried for the 3rd time to get this to work. Everything looks the same as you show. I don’t really understand the alignment parameter and what you mean by insert at 0,0,0 it looks like you insert to the right of 0,0,0, Anyway I tried to make it appear like you explanation and clicked the close block editor. I have a quick drawing already made but when I try to label the line bearing nothing happens. Any help appreciated.

You can set the text height when you create a block attribute definition.

I wish there was a way to change the d to a degree symbol. I've been looking for that. Maybe Autodesk will read this and make the change in a future release?
