Computing polygon areas and creating a table out of it in your CAD software is one of the most important tasks of a CAD designer. The CP_CALCAREA command in CADPower V 23.32 now offers the ability to detect embedded (island) polygons. Island polygons can be closed polylines, circles, ellipes or splines or even blocks which represent a wall, door or such fixture.
Available under the Polyline drop-down menu and in the ribbon and toolbars, the CP_CALCAREA command now allows the perfect ability to create wall facades, in which you can subtract the areas of doors, windows, panels, lofts or openings and create accurate computed nett. ares for painting and similar operations.
The enhanced improvements in the CP_CALCAREA command are designed to work with other CADPower commands for space planning and estimation , like CP_BUILDWALLS, CP_PLACEFIXTURES and so on.
These improvements are part of our major initiative to build CADPower as a tool for quantity take-offs and area/cost/quantity computations for civil design professionals.
