Key features include:
- Layer Selection: Easily select the desired layers from a complete list, allowing you to focus on specific areas of your drawing. The selected layers are saved for convenient access each time the command is used.
- Detailed Summaries: View a summary of the total number of objects, their cumulative area, length, and associated colors in the selected layers.
- Automatic Table Generation: Automatically generate a detailed table summarizing the area, length, and color of objects in the selected layers, enhancing data visualization and documentation.
- Data Export: Export the calculated data, including coordinates, into a CSV file for further analysis or record-keeping.
- Flexible Processing: Options to process all entities within a layer or select specific objects directly, providing flexibility in how you manage and analyze your drawing elements.
- Annotation Settings: Customize area, length, and drawing unit annotations to match your project’s requirements.
The CP_LAYERAREA command simplifies the management of large and complex drawings by providing precise and actionable data, improving efficiency, and ensuring accurate documentation.
