Convert curves to polylines
Transforms complex curve geometries–including arcs, splines, circles, and polylines with arcs–into polyline objects. This conversion simplifies editing tasks and improves interoperability with both CAD and GIS workflows. It is particularly valuable when preparing data for export or additional modifications within... more
Create layouts centered over objects
Creates atlas-like layouts automatically from the objects in your DWG. By using an existing layout as a template, the application generates multiple new layouts, each one focused on a specific object or group of objects. The view in every layout... more
Create polygons from points
Generates polygons (closed polylines) by sequentially joining the individual points that define their perimeter. Useful for rebuilding area objects from boundary point sets (parcels, enclosures, plots, etc.). Points may be classified by an attribute; each distinct value groups its points... more
Simplify polylines
Reduces the number of vertices in polylines or polygons to simplify their geometry, optimizing complexity while preserving the overall shape. This function improves performance and visualization of spatial data by removing unnecessary detail. When applied to adjacent polygons, care should... more
Envelope of geometries
Generates an envelope or bounding box for the selected geometries, representing the smallest rectangle that completely contains each object. This operation is commonly used to generalize shapes, define spatial extents, or prepare data for indexing, visualization, or spatial queries, providing... more
Create polylines from points
Converts individual points into connected polylines by automatically following their original sequence or by ordering them according to a specified attribute. This functionality is especially useful for creating linear elements like paths, routes, or boundaries from point datasets. ... more
