Flip ECS of Arcs with Negative Normals: CP_FLIPARCS – CADPower Command

Summary

The CP_FLIPARCS command in CADPower for BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander is used to reverse the direction of ARC normals that are pointing in the negative WCS Z-axis. This ensures that all selected arcs have their normals aligned to the positive Z-axis, preventing inconsistencies in 3D modeling and visualization.

CADPower -> Miscellaneous Tools -> CAD Procedures 1st -> Flip ECS of arcs with negative normals

Key features include:

  • Normalize Arc Orientation – Converts negative ECS (Entity Coordinate System) normals to positive in WCS.
  • Ensures Consistency – Helps avoid issues related to incorrect arc orientations in 3D modeling and surface generation.
  • Batch Processing – Allows flipping multiple arcs simultaneously for efficiency.
  • Improves 3D Workflow – Essential for solid modeling, extrusion operations, and correct hatch placements.
  • Compatible with Major CAD Platforms – Works seamlessly in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD, and ARES Commander.

Benefits:

With CP_FLIPARCS, users can quickly correct arc normals, ensuring proper geometric orientation and eliminating potential rendering or modeling issues in their CAD projects.
