Remove collinear vertices of a polyline

This command allows to delete colinear vertices of a set of 2D or 3D polylines, i.e those having the same angle.
This allows to straighten a polyline. You must give the deflection angle to use.

Removing vertices whose deflection angle is < 10 degrees

Command options :

• Preserve polyline Handle : if this option is selected, the polyline will preserve its identifier within the drawing. In the opposite case, a new polyline with a new handle will be created, and the former polyline deleted. It is usually counseled to preserve this handle, certain add-ons (like Activeline for example) using it. However, in the case of polylines having many vertices (several thousands), the operation can be largely slowed down. Therefore, if you have many polylines with many vertices to treat, and if the Handle is not important, use this option.

Remarks : None.
