Dimension an Arc length in Drawing

Is it possible to dimension an arc length in a drawing? I can get the radius/diameter dimension, and the angle dimension just fine, but can't seem to figure out how to get the length. The number I'm looking for would be the same as the measure tool and selecting the arc. I could just measure it and add the dimension manually, but I'd love for it to be calculated in case I need to update the arc later

Still not sure how it is 2025 and a seemingly basic tool for accurately dimensioning drawings has not been implemented. Hoping this gets added very soon.
Feels like some smart person could do a feature script to allow it to be dimensioned in a sketch, then the sketch could be shown in the drawing,
