VB Rhino.Curvelength

I would like to know if it's possible to use rhino comment i.e., rhino.curvelength in VB/GH as below picture. If anyone has done this before, please advise.

Thank you very much.

If you want to measure the length of a curve, the best place to start looking is the curve itself. Curve.GetLength() in this case.

Thank you very much David.

I've tried to use the command Curve.GetLength(), however, it seems to me that there should be something more to use this function. Pls. advise. Below is picture for more information;

In fact, my plan is to try to make fabric flattening by transform 3D to 2D. I want to use VB to get shortest lines from one point to the other points in other 3 edges, for instance, there are 4 edges --> Edge1,2,3,4. Each edge to be divided to get points ie., 2a,2b, 3a, 3b...... Each point of one edge will only draw one shortest line to those points of other edges. (From picture below shortest line from 1a is 1a to 4i) and this will be repeated for all points.
