The word "LINE" in AutoCAD has a specific meaning, and it's a single straight line defined by only its two end points. Clearly that is not what you want. If you have a shape that is more complex than the basic entity types [Circle, Arc, Ellipse], then something has to define the...
Easily create rectangles and polygons as single objects Smart application of non-continuous linetypes across vertices Easy extrusion for 3D solids in AutoCAD Modifying Polylines Several methods are available to change the shape and appearance of a polyline. When you select a polyline you can use gr...
Moves the X marker to the next vertex. Previous Moves the X marker to the previous vertex. Go Deletes any segments and vertices between the two vertices you select, replaces them with single straight line segments, and returns to Edit Vertex mode. If you specify only one vertex by entering...
This wouldn't be a problem so much for the CAM software as it can accomodate some gap but as I am stuck laying out my nest sheets in AutoCAD I offset the profile by half of the required part separation, change the offset to a contrasting color layer and procede to layout the parts ...
In AutoCAD, a Polyline is a single object that is composed of lines and/or arc segments. How is a LINE different from a Polyline? A Polyline is made of LINEs. It is not possible to select a segment of a Polyline without selecting the whole. ...
1.03 Update to AutoCAD 2023 1.02 The plug-in also works with 3D-polylines. 1.01 The plug-in quickly and easily connects single curve objects (lines, arcs, splines, and polylines) into polylines. Settings: - Z-Level - width - fuzzy distance - spline precision - keep base objects©...

The resultant LWPolyline entities created by the function will inherit all properties (such as: layer, linetype, lineweight etc.) of each of the original selected objects. The program is currently restricted to LWPolylines without arc segments or self-intersection. ...
Within AutoCAD, polylines can be created by using the POLYLINE command in the command line. Polyline Use Case: Digitized Maps Polylines can be used to graphically represent an area, such as a river or road. They are often used to digitize vector data from scanned maps into GIS software ...
I've been using AutoCAD daily for cnc use for 15 years. Other than splines, you can get perfect .dxf files all day long, if you know what you're doing. Vectric's V-Carve Pro can fit arcs to splines to give you the smooth curves you're looking for. Download the demo and try it...
