CADPower Commands

Line 2 XLINE: CP_LINE2XLINE – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_LINE2XLINE command is a quick and efficient tool for converting an existing line entity into an XLINE (construction line). This is particularly useful for creating infinite construction references based on existing lines, aiding in precise alignment and drafting tasks. CADPower -> Conversion -> Line/Polyline/Arc/Spline -> Line 2 XLINE Key features include: The CP_LINE2XLINE command is essential for CAD professionals looking to enhance their workflow by quickly generating XLINEs from existing geometry.

Acquire Neighbouring Polyline Elevations: CP_POLYGETZ – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_POLYGETZ command facilitates the transfer of elevation data between two polylines—a source and a target—based on proximity and specific criteria. This command is particularly useful for aligning 3D elevation data between polylines in geographic and surveying applications. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Acquire neighbouring polyline elevations Key features include: Two main methods for elevation transfer: The CP_POLYGETZ command is a powerful tool for ensuring elevation consistency between polylines, aiding in precise 3D modeling and analysis. Acquire Neighbouring Polyline Elevations: CP_POLYGETZ – CADPower Command

Draw Linear Polylines from Arced Polylines: CP_LINPOLY – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_LINPOLY command transforms arced polylines into linear polylines by connecting each vertex of the original polyline with straight lines. This process replaces the curved segments (arcs) with straight-line chords, effectively creating a simplified linear representation of the polyline. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Draw linear polylines from arced polylines Key features include: The CP_LINPOLY command is ideal for situations where linear representations are preferred or required, such as simplifying complex designs or preparing drawings for certain types of analysis.

Fix Line/Polylines with Different UCS: CP_FIXUCS – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_FIXUCS command is designed to correct and transform entities created or positioned in a non-parallel UCS (User Coordinate System) back to the WCS (World Coordinate System). This command helps in realigning lines, polylines, and text objects to their intended physical positions in the global coordinate system. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Fix line/polylines with different UCS Key features include: The CP_FIXUCS command is a valuable tool for maintaining accuracy and consistency in drawings that involve multiple coordinate systems, ensuring that entities are correctly positioned within the WCS.

Zoom to Polyline: CP_ZPOLY – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_ZPOLY command is a convenient tool for quickly zooming into the extents of a selected polyline. It adjusts the view to focus on the lower left and upper right corners of the polyline’s bounding box, providing an optimal view of the polyline within the drawing. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Zoom to Polyline Key features include: The CP_ZPOLY command improves workflow efficiency by enabling fast and accurate zooming to polyline extents, making it easier to review and edit specific parts of a drawing.

Control Polyline Linetypes: CP_FLOW_LT – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_FLOW_LT command allows users to manage the flow of linetypes across polyline segments in AutoCAD and BricsCAD. By enabling or disabling flowing linetypes, this command ensures that linetype patterns are consistently applied, even across short segments, enhancing the visual accuracy of the polyline representation. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Control polyline linetypes Key features include: The CP_FLOW_LT command provides essential control over polyline linetypes, allowing users to tailor the appearance of their drawings for improved clarity and precision.

Explode Splined: CP_XPSPL – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_XPSPL command is designed to convert splined or fitted polylines into plain polylines composed of line or arc segments. This process involves exploding the selected polylines into their individual segments and then rejoining them to form a standard polyline. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Explode Splined Key features include: The CP_XPSPL command is invaluable for users needing to convert splined or fitted polylines into a more manageable and widely compatible format, streamlining their design and analysis processes.

Offset Closed Polylines INwards/OUTwards: CP_INOUTOFFSET – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_INOUTOFFSET command simplifies the process of offsetting multiple closed polylines either inwards or outwards with a single operation. This command is especially useful for adjusting boundaries, creating buffers, or modifying closed shapes efficiently. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Others -> Offset closed polylines INwards/OUTwards Key features include: Workflow: The CP_INOUTOFFSET command enhances productivity by allowing rapid and accurate adjustments to closed polylines, making it an essential tool for efficient design modifications.

Fillet Multiple Polylines: CP_MFILLET – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_MFILLET command streamlines the process of applying fillets to multiple polylines simultaneously, enhancing efficiency when working with complex drawings. This command allows you to fillet several polylines at once using a consistent radius, saving time and ensuring uniformity across your design. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Flip/Fillet -> Fillet multiple polylines Key features include: The CP_MFILLET command is ideal for CAD professionals who need to apply fillets across multiple polylines efficiently, improving productivity and maintaining the integrity of their designs.

Enhanced Fillet Command: CP_FILLETPOLY – CADPower Command

Summary The CP_FILLETPOLY command offers an advanced filleting solution specifically designed for polylines, addressing the limitations of standard fillet commands in CAD software like AutoCAD and BricsCAD. It allows seamless filleting between two polylines, handling complex scenarios that traditional commands struggle with. CADPower -> Polyline Tools -> Flip/Fillet -> Enhanced fillet command Key features include: The CP_FILLETPOLY command is an indispensable tool for CAD professionals requiring reliable and accurate filleting in complex polyline configurations, significantly improving workflow efficiency and design accuracy.
