Summary
The GT_FIXCLOSED command in GeoTools allows users to add or remove the last vertex of a closed polyline to maintain consistency in geometry within BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander.
GeoTool -> Polyline Tools -> Vertex Management -> Add / Remove redundant closing vertex in polylines
Key Features Include:
- Manage Closing Vertices:
- Add Closing Vertex – Inserts a redundant last vertex, duplicating the first vertex if the gap between them exceeds a specified tolerance.
- Remove Closing Vertex – Eliminates the last vertex if the first and last vertex are within the specified tolerance distance.
- Closing Tolerance Control – Users can define a tolerance threshold to determine whether a closing vertex should be added or removed.
- Ensures Geometric Accuracy – Helps maintain topological correctness in GIS applications, CAD drawings, and contour-based designs.
Benefits:
This tool is particularly useful for surveyors, civil engineers, and CAD professionals who need precise control over closed polylines for mapping and modeling purposes.
