FP_DIS

Remove short segments of a polyline


This command allows to delete segments of a set of 2D or 3D polylines whose length is smaller than a defined value.

 

Command options :

  • For 3D polylines, use 3D distance : if this option is selected, the distance between 2 vertices will be the 3D distance, otherwise the 2D distance.
  • 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 : Entering a too large value can lead to delete all vertices, in which case the command won't execute and will warn you.
