Summary

The GT_SCALE_Z command in GeoTools updates 2D polylines, 3D polylines, and 3D faces by scaling the Z-values of each vertex using a specified factor in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander.

GeoTool -> Conversion Tools -> Conversion Tools -> Scale Z values

Key Features Include:

• Applies Z-Scaling to Multiple Object Types:
  • Works on 2D polylines, 3D polylines, and 3D faces.
  • Supports Z scaling for POINTs, BLOCKs, and SHAPEs.
• Customizable Z Conversion Factor:
  • Users can increase or decrease elevation values by specifying a scale factor.
  • A factor greater than 1 increases Z-values, while a factor less than 1 reduces them.
• Preserves Geometry Integrity:
  • Ensures that only the Z-values are modified while retaining XY coordinates.

Benefits:

This tool is essential for terrain modeling, elevation adjustments, and CAD-based 3D transformations, providing precise control over vertical scaling in drawings.
