Thanks! Tried it out real quick, it's a lot faster than the manual method I've been using.

Two downsides on this script though: only works in object mode, and no way to copy-paste the calculated output.

(I'd guess there's probably some edit that could be done to the script to make the value copy-able, but that's going to take some digging again.)

But it's still a lot better than dragging out an array of objects until it gets close.

And I still don't understand why something like this isn't built in to begin with. I'm sure if you compared most of the commercial apps Blender is almost ready to take on, they have this in there somewhere.
