kasper_4000 Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 How can I check wether my lines in a 2d object are closed or not?? Quote
kasper_4000 Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 Well, I have to hatch something and I know there is a function that can show lines that aren't closed. I just can't remember what it is.. Quote
designerstuart Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 properites (command CH) - it's in there Quote
designerstuart Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 you can also QSELECT and choose only (or all) polylines which are not closed, if that helps Quote
ReMark Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Lines or Polylines? Polylines that aren't closed will be indicated in the Properties window under Misc > Closed > Yes/No. I have no idea what the command CH is supposed to do. Quote
kasper_4000 Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 thanks... I also found the "pedit" usefull.. Quote
ReMark Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 So you weren't actually checking to see if they were closed. You wanted to know how to close them. Quote
kasper_4000 Posted February 17, 2011 Author Posted February 17, 2011 Yes, so true... Sorry, sometimes these questions just make sense in your own head you know... Quote
designerstuart Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 remark - CH is the standard command for properties palette - i have no idea why CH but it works on all my machines (the least i expect now is to be shown step by step, with reference to AutoCAD help, how and why i am wrong ) Quote
eldon Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 remark - CH is the standard command for properties palette - i have no idea why CH but it works on all my machines Before Properties came along, the command was Change for changing properties. So in the Command alias there is CH which now starts the command Properties (also PROPS). I am surprised that the fount of all knowledge should have forgotten this Quote
designerstuart Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 sweet! i taught remark something! woooooo hooooo! i better celebrate with a large ribina. thanks eldon for adding a sense of history. Quote
ReMark Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Ahhhhhhh, CH does work on my system but since I already run with Properties enabled, but on Auto-Hide, I did not see anything happen on my screen. I don't frequent CADTutor to dispense knowledge so much as to learn new things myself. But please, do not let me stop you from celebrating. Be my guest. Quote
designerstuart Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 yes when i see people working without properties palette, and having to type a command (especially if they use command PROPERTIES) i look at them like they are from a remote, prehistoric solar system. "how can you work like this?!" Quote
nestly Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 CH is also new to me, however I don't think I'll ever use it since CTRL+1 is quicker than C+H+Enter. Quote
