CadTools General / Re: build 757/758, problem with duplicates during creating chain of 3D plines
« Last post by Lars on March 10, 2023, 11:56:03 AM »
Great that it works for you!

I was wrong about the Join function, shame on me forgetting how things work  :-[
Of course it works as you say and it's also described in the helpfile (below).

Join 3D polyline
<Commands>, <Lines>

Joins 3Dpolylines. The first line becomes the master line, lines selected after the first line inherits colors and layer properties.
All lines must have exactly the same coordinates (start point-endpoint) otherwise they will not be joined.

1. yes. On start I use simple lines (3D-lines) - I prepare break lines (for ex edges ditch's bottom). I do it because 3d lines are not quick enough for me
2 Then I do export all lines to 3Dplines
3. 3d-plines join into the chain (selecting by window/crossing works!). But I had problem with bad chain (big mess with duplicates).
Now I've tried do it in the same way (lines3D to plines3D and join 3dpl to chain: I select one first and than all 3dplines by the window) and I got absolutely correct chain.
I will be observe this occurrence, maybe I do sth wrong..
Thank for your answer

Hi,

I'm not sure if I understand your question, I'll try to explain what I think.

You have single 2Dlines like a linestring, not connected with each other but having same start-and end coordinates (except first line first vertex an last line last vertex)?

Using "Join 3D Polylines" in CadTools is designed to join two 3DPolylines, nothing more. You can't select a window or a Crossing. You need to select a 3DPolyline and then join element one by one.

As an option you could export all line coordinates to Excel (Using CadTools "Lines, Export polyline Coordinates to Excel"). Remove duplicate vertices in Excel and finally paste the coordinates back into CadTools "Draw from Coordinates" (using Type: Polyline Vertex).

CadTools General / build 757/758, problem with duplicates during creating chain of 3D plines

build 757/758, problem (zwcad2022):
I have problem when I create 3D plines from the lines. I change prepared the lines (no duplicated!) to 3Dpl. Then I join 3pl-s to one chain, because I need densify it. And then, it turns out that I have made the chain from duplicates (chain 3pl in the loop).
 The problem is probably during processing 3PL into a chain, because when I explode this chain to lines I get duplicates. What can be wrong with this procedure?
I use window to select the entities, when I select by single ent., chain is ok

Hi,

Change "Mode" to Slope" (in the Mode Menu on main form)
You will see two toolbars, the second is what you should use.

  • Check the radiobutton below the Slope% input box. This indicates that you want to annotate the slope between two points.
  • Make sure the button with Z doesn't have a red cross, if so click it once make your pick target elevation of point.
  • Press the fourth button from left (Arrow and letter A)
  • Select first point
  • Select last point
  • Select annotation point

In CadTools Setting, Slope Mode Tab you find some useful setting when using Slope Mode. Show history is very useful to check picked values and slopes.

For more information read the helpfile.

CadTools General / Slope arrow and percent
« Last post by vagk_18 on January 15, 2023, 06:15:54 PM »
Lars Hi.
I would like to ask you if it is possible to plot in a dwg a line with an arrow and a number (in percent) by selecting 2 points with different elevations (Scipping to draw a 3d polyline)?
For example, if I insert measured points in Autocad and I want to show slopes between some points how can I do it faster?
Thank you in advance.

There is a update available (Build 757) containing support for ZWCAD 2023. However I've not tested it on a installed ZWCAD 2023, but it should work.
