PCB Editor: how to get the physical length of a bondwire?

Hi! How can I obtain the actual physical length of a bondwire in Allegro PCB Editor? The ruler tool just gives me the 2D distance between its extreme points :\

Thanks and regards, Jorge.

Yeah, that was my first try, but it seems it only gives the 2D-projection length, not actual length (with the ruler that measure is ~2.3mm):
