hi,
did anyone know a way or command to quickly check if the lines are overlapped or disconnected in the drawing??
 it really gave me a pain due to that, becasue i was always trying to find out where the lines were overlapped or disconnected when they could not be joint as a polyline.
thanks! ------------- Ken@Greiner Aerospace |

I think you can clean up overlapping lines with the OVERKILL command. As far as connecting lines you could use the JOIN command with a "fuzz" factor of "0". ------------- "Humans have a strength that cannot be measured. This is John Connor.

OVERKILL is the command for the job...but it's version-dependant.
OVERKILL used to be only an Express Tools command and goes back to about 2005 or so. It only became available in LT in 2012 as far as I know. So unless the OP has the full version of AutoCAD or LT 2012 overkill might not be available.

Hi guys,
Thank you for your reply!
Unfortunately I can not use "overkill" command, since I am working with AutoCAD LT 2010.
Do you know other ways to check? ------------- Ken@Greiner Aerospace |

You'll have to do a search for a diesel macro that will do the same thing assuming that one even exists.
