Anyone put there found a easy way to remove the z co-ords from lines etc without having to use the flatten command. I tried flatten and it sent the machine into overdrive and still didn't complete the job properly.

Have a good one, Mike
Re: Flatten Z cords without using the Flatten command.
change the z elevation in the properties palette
Re: Flatten Z cords without using the Flatten command.
But change elevation only works with objects having the same Z value . if your object having different Z values u'll need the flatten commandchange the z elevation in the properties palette

For example, the z-value for each end of a line can be altered in the properties manager.

You might want to try this:
Code:(command "._move" (ssget) "" '(0 0 1e99) "" "._move" "_P" "" '(0 0 -1e99) "")

Re: Flatten Z cords without using the Flatten command.
Land Desktop has a "Flatten Z Values" command. This question comes up so often, maybe we need a Wishlist item to move this command from LDD to Vanilla Autocad?
Re: Flatten Z cords without using the Flatten command.
Simple - do what I do.
At the command line:
change>properties>all>elevation>0>enter
I always seem to get hit with "lines are non-coplanar" messages, so that always does the trick!
Hope it helps!

Re: Flatten Z cords without using the Flatten command.
I agree w/ CadKitty. Or just a plain "move" command will work. move items from 0,0 to 0,0,0. For us civil geeks, this is an easy way to lift or lower grade lines one foot. Rich
Re: Flatten Z cords without using the Flatten command.
I apologize for another post, but I just remembered that someone came to me last week because he couldnt get the flatten command to work and the line he snapped too had a z elevation of .00006 so sometimes moving to just "0" doesnt help, you might have to change the unit precision or put a lot of 0's after a decimal point.
