Summary

The GT_FIXUCS command in GeoTools is used to correct lines and polylines that were created in a non-parallel UCS, bringing them back to the World Coordinate System (WCS) while maintaining their position. This ensures uniformity across CAD drawings in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander.

Fix Line/Polylines with Different UCS: GT_FIXUCS – GeoTools Command

Key Features Include:

• Correct UCS Misalignment:
  • Converts lines and polylines drawn in different UCS orientations back to the WCS without altering their geometry.
• Layer Placement Options:
  • Source – Places the corrected polyline in its original layer.
  • Current – Places the corrected polyline in the active layer.
  • Specify – Allows the user to select a custom layer.
• Delete Original Objects:
  • Option to remove the original polylines after correction.
• Layer Selection Interface:
  • Displays the selected layer name and provides a dialog box to choose the target layer.

Benefits:

This tool is essential for CAD professionals working with multi-UCS drawings, ensuring consistency and accuracy when integrating geometry across different coordinate systems.
