Just wondering: Are there IFC objects that have a Count property?

But the wiki never mentioned about IFC and than object.length is wrong.

Schedules work with other objects or just IFC related?

I have just updated the wiki (Arch_Schedule).
I assume that 'type' is translated to 'ifctype' for compatibility reasons (note that this requires fixing a typo in the code, I'll do a PR).

No. But the fact that 'type' is translated to 'ifctype' can be an issue.

That is not what I have said. Object.Length, with an uppercase 'O', is wrong.

just a question more, how can I create a Schedule or Report for the next values:

this because everything in BIM WB objects works for Schedules, but what about other objects?

Image
I mean, extract perimeter from a Circle, extract volume from any solid, or extract all length in a Column Array. is this possible?

On the one hand you ask for revised documentation, but on the other you have yet to really study it.
Asking for the Length of a circle does not make sense because a circle does not have that property. You will have to calculate the circumference from the radius (on a separate spreadsheet). The same goes for the total length of the beams in the array.

Is there any method to create custom properties to create, for example, a perimeter for circle and extract it using report or schedules?

You can add a property to an object in the GUI. But that property will not be taken into account by Arch_Schedule. You would have to create your own custom objects to achieve what you want.
