I asked this question here before:
I have a situation where I need to scale the Z values of a few 3d polylines while holding the X,Y values in the same place. The project consist of adjusting the Z values to meters (0.3048 scale factor), but keeping the X,Y values in feet. Can this be accomplished? Is there a lisp routine for this available?
And I received this answer (which does work):
Create a block of your geometry, then insert into your a blank drawing with the Z coordinate distorted. Then place the block at whatever base 0 point you have and check it dimensionally before using.
But now, this is a problem because now I have a situation where object data is attached to the original 3d polylines, and the object data is detached from the objects after I perform the scaling conversion above. has anything come out recently for this? Is is possible to scale each 3d polyline (Z value only) without changing the object to a block first hand? Thanks
