      Menu : GeoTools Miscellaneous Tools Das geo-referenzierte Image einsetzen, das den ausgewählten Interesszonen(AOI)entspricht
Command line : GT_DWGBROWSER
The GT_DWGBROWSER command is used to browse DWG files from multiple folders with an option to view a thumbnail image of each file inside a preview window. The selected file can then be inserted into the current drawing. You can specify a set of your favourite folders, give them a description each and store the settings in an ASCII INI file for subsequent retreival. By default, the file will be called DWGBROWSER.INI and will reside (or be created) in your current drawing folder. Additional block insert parameters like x, y scale factors and rotation angles can be pre-set or specified on-screen as desired.

Tools Ein georeferenziertes Bild einfügen
Command line: GT_GEO_INS  

The GT_GEO_INS command can be used to insert geo-referenced image files. These image files can be either in the TIF, BMP or JPG format and they MUST be accompanied by their world files as well. The World files have an extension of TFW, BPW or JGW respectively. This command DOES NOT import GeoTIFF files in which the geo-referencing information is stored in the file header. Instead, this is a command designed to work with the normal TIF, JPG and BMP files only which have their world files also available in the same folder.

Upon starting this command, GT_GEO_INS displays a multiple file selection dialog box which allows multiple image files from the same folder to be selected. All the selected image files will be attached with geo-referencing.

 

 

Toolbar : Diverse Tools
      Menu : GeoTools Diverse Tools Objekt-Teiler
Command line: GT_CHOP

The CHOP command chops lines and polylines into a specified number of divisions or creates chops of a specified length by splitting the object into equally sized segments. 



Tech Info: CHOP only works with line and polylines objects. They can be 2d or 3d. For polylines to be chopped, they must be de-curved (not fitted or splined) and must not have any arc segments in them. Such polylines will be ignored by the CHOP command and must be pre-processed using other tools in this command before they can be chopped.

Menu : GeoTools Diverse
Tools Objekte ausrichten
Command line:
GT_OBJALIGN 
The GT_OBJALIGN command helps to align a selection of objects to a justification. GeoTools applies an "extents" computation of the objects and based on these extents, the objects are moved (aligned) to share a common datum. The justification that can be applied are the nine positions of text alignment viz, Top Left/Center/Right, Middle Left/Center/Right and Bottom Left/Center/Right.

The alignment operation can be applied on the whole selection as a single unit or on each object in the selection set individually.

 

 



Toolbar : Diverse Tools  
      Menu : GeoTools Diverse Tools   Konrolle der 3dface Normalen
Command line:
GT_FACENORMAL



The GT_FACENORMAL command allows control of direction of 3dface normals. If the vertices of the 3dface are in clockwise direction, then the normal is pointing downwards from the plane of the 3dface else if they are in counter-clockwise direction, the normal is pointing upwards from the plane of the 3dface. This command helps to control the normal direction in three ways:

Flip: Flips (reverses) the direction of the face normal

Align to an elevation: Aligns the face normals such as to point in the direction of a specified Z value. What this means is that if the target Z value specified is greater than the maximum Z of all 3dface vertices, the normal will be flipped if necessary so as to point towards the target elevation. This option can be used to make all normals of selected 3dfaces point to a common high or low elevation so that all faces can be made to point inwards or outwards.

Draw: Draws the face normal as it is. No flipping or checking is done. The face normal starts from a point in the plane of the 3dface at the centroid position and is drawn to the specified length in the direction of the normal.

 

 


Toolbar : Diverse Tools  
      Menu : GeoTools Diverse Tools Herausziehen aus XREF
Command line: GT_XTRACT 

Use this command to extract an object from an XREF and import it into the current drawing. This is a quick tool to just pick one small thing from XREF and use in your current drawing. This command simplifies the task of sharing data between drawings very easily without having to open the drawing and bring in the object by WBLOCK/INSERT or other indirect means like copy/paste etc. The GT_XTRACT command works correctly only in XREFs which are inserted at 0.0,0.0,0.0. Other insertion points may produce incorrect results.

The GT_XTRACT command will only allow the extraction of LINE, POINT, ARC, SHAPE, POLYLINE and ATTRIBUTE objects.

Tools Werte von Punkten/Linien aufrunden
Command line: GT_ROUNDOFF 
The GT_ROUNDOFF command allows points, lines, polylines, blocks, text and shape objects to have their co-ordinates rounded off to the desired number of decimal places.

Rounding Off options:

Decimal places precision: Choosing this option causes the co-ordinates to be changed based on the number of decimal places. Enter the number of decimal places desired. This option is good for changing setting precision values under 1 AutoCAD unit.

Round Off to multiple of: Choosing this option causes the rounding off to take place based on the multiple of a number.

What to round off?
X: Checking this causes only the X co-ordinate to be rounded off.
Y: Checking this causes only the Y co-ordinate to be rounded off.
Z: Checking this causes only the Z co-ordinate to be rounded off.
XY: Checking this causes only the X and Y co-ordinate to be rounded off.
XYZ: Checking this causes the X, Y and Z co-ordinates to be rounded off.

Toolbar : Diverse Tools  
      Menu : GeoTools Diverse Tools Höhenlinien Abstand Tool.
Command line:
GT_CONTDIST 

The GT_CONTDIST command is an intra-contour spacing checker and contour breaking tool. Often, when the distance or spacing between two adjacent contours is too small, it is difficult to either view the contours clearly or to create un-cluttered labels to depict the contours. In such situations, it is useful to break the contours at locations where the distance between the contour and the adjacent contours on either side is less than a specified Distance Tolerance.

The GT_CONTDIST command measures from each vertex of the contour polyline, the distance on either sides of the contour being processed, and if the distance is less then the specified Distance Tolerance then that point is marked in memory for breaking. In this manner, the whole contour polyline is checked and the segments that are within the Tolerance distance from the adjacent contours are broken. This process continues till all the selected contours are processed in multiple mode.

 

Sampling Method: Select the method that the command uses to perform distance sampling.

Vertex:
If this option is chosen, distance measurements are taken at each and every vertex of the contour polyline.

Segment Distance: If this option is chosen, distance measurements are taken at specified regular interpolated segment distances along the contour polyline.

Note: You will need to choose which option to use for your processing depending on the density and number of vertices in the polylines, the size of data you need to process etc. Increasing the Segment Distance will result in faster processing while using the "Vertex" is likely to produce a more realistic output. In any case, the user must exercise his judgement carefully and select the option that is best suited for their data. It is recommended that you perform a few trials with different values and options before deciding on the best option.

Process Method: Choose the appropriate processing method.

Debug: Allows to select only one contour object and runs the program in debug mode. In this mode, the program actually draws the perpendicular lines from each vertex (or measurement) point to the adjacent contours and also displays the distance measurements by creating text strings next to the lines. This is purely for testing and debug purposes.

Process: Actually do the processing of multiple selected contours.

Exclude major/special contours from breaking: Checking this box allows to exclude Major and specified exclusion contour elevations from breaking.

Segment Sampling Interval: If the sampling method above is chosen as Segment Distance, the value you enter here will be taken to determine the segment distance at which the linear interpolation will take place.

Distance Tolerance (between contours): Enter tolerance distance to measure in between the two contours.

Major Contour Interval: Enter the major contour interval here.

Minor Contour Interval: Enter the minor contour interval here.

Contour intervals to exclude from breaking: Enter additional elevations of contours (comma separated) to be excluded from processing.

Broken Contour Layer: Click on the Select button to select the layer in which the broken contour marks have to be drawn. The name of the selected layer is shown in the text edit box beside this button.

Tools Objekte entlang Polylinie brechen
Command line: GT_CONTBREAK
The GT_CONTBREAK command is a general purpose command to break a drawing along a boundary. The boundary can be open or closed and must be defined as a polyline.

It is ideally suited to break up a large drawing of contours or other geographical features into smaller drawings. The breaking is performed along the breaking (or cutting) edge. The objects that can be broken along the cutting edge are a 2d polyline, 2d line, arcs and splines. After this command has run, the objects will be split (or broken) on either side of the cutting edge. Nothing is erased from the drawing.

In the above illustration, you see a screenshot from a dense contour drawing of 55 MB size. By setting up appropriate closed polyline cutting edges (blue lines in the figure above), it is possible to break the contours easily at the boundary of these polygons. Once that is done, it is easy to export this to another drawing using the GeoTools GT_ESELECT command.

The GT_ZOOMENT command zooms to the extent of selected objects with a margin of 5% border on the sides of the screen.


Toolbar : Diverse Tools  
      Menu : GeoTools Diverse Tools Scale objects (unequally) in X, Y and Z directions.
Command line:
GT_XYZSCL
The GT_XYZSCL command performs non-uniform scaling of objects with specified X, Y and Z scale factors and a user-specified base point. This is similar to the AutoCAD SCALE command except that you can specify unequal scale factors in X, Y and Z directions.

Tech Info: The command can be used to scale 2D as well as 3D objects. The only exception is the AutoCAD 3DSOLID entity. If the selection contains 3DSOLID objects, the command cannot function correctly because, internally, the program creates an AutoCAD block out of the selected objects and inserts it with the specified X, Y and Z scale factors and then explodes it. But, AutoCAD does not allow exploding unequally scaled blocks which contain a 3DSOLID object. This is an AutoCAD limitation.

Toolbar : Diverse Tools
      Menu : GeoTools Diverse Tools Enter the coordinates of point in geographic format [Lat-Long].
Command line: 
(GEO)
(geo) is not a GeoTools command that can be run off the AutoCAD command line. Instead, it is a transparent function which can be called at any point when AutoCAD is expecting a point input. The (geo) function helps to input coordinates in geographic coordinates (Latitudes and Longitudes) in degree-minute-second format (for example, 33° 01' 53.8739",18° 01' 11.2246",480.0 is a Latitude of 33° 01' 53.8739" and a Longitude of 18° 01' 11.2246" and a height of 480.0

Note: 1) You have to run (GEO) function by typing in PARENTHESES without which it will not run.
         2) The (geo) function can be called ONLY when an AutoCAD command (and not a GeoTools command) is expecting for a point entry.

Command line: GT_CONTCLASS 

This command places objects representing contours (Polylinies or LDDT contour objects) into different layers according to their contour interval.



You can select a maximum of five contour intervals and specify a layer name for each of these contour intervals. The selected contour objects are then placed in their allotted layers. You can select AutoCAD Polylinie objects or LDDT contour objects.

Tip: GT_CONTCLASS can be used as a terrain analysis tool or for creating map output showing contours of specific elevations only.

 

 


Toolbar : Miscellaneous  (Bricscad only)
      Menu : GeoTools Miscellaneous  Wblock and preserve AutoCAD Map objects
Command line: GT_WBLOCKBC

GT_WBLOCKBC is a command which should be used in Bricscad when you want to do a WBLOCK (Save Block) on AutoCAD Map drawings containing object data. This is a workaround command to overcome a bug in Bricscad and prevent losing object data when doing a WBLOCK from Bricscad on drawings saved in AutoCAD Map.

 

 

Toolbar : Miscellaneous (Bricscad only)
      Menu : GeoTools Miscellaneous  TABLE Edit / Explode, Bricscad only
Command line: GT_TABLEEDIT
The GT_TABLEEDIT command can be used to edit or explode an AutoCAD TABLE object (ACAD_TABLE).

Background: An AutoCAD TABLE object when imported into Bricscad becomes an anonymous block (if DXF'ed) or an un-explodable, un-editable ACAD_TABLE object (if saved as DWG). The GT_TABLEEDIT command is an attempt to bring this TABLE back to life in Bricscad and make it usable. The command offers two possibilities - to explode the TABLE or convert it into a block with attributes so that you can edit it further. When you explode the TABLE, it becomes lines and MTEXT. When you convert it into a attributed block, each cell of the table becomes an attribute which you can then edit using block attribute editor.

Known limitations:
- If the original TABLE is rotated, the resulting TABLE may get created horizontally (angle=0)
- Sometimes, the resulting table may get created at a slightly different (offsetted) location. You may need to move it to your desired location.
- The cell text may sometimes show up slightly ofsetted with improper justification. This will need manual correction.

Maximum Selection set length to store: Specify the maximum number of objects to store in a selection set. During processing of extremely large selections sets, AutoCAD may slow down considerably because of intense disk paging activity. Setting this limit to a lower value prevents GeoTools from storing larger selection sets in memory. This may help speed up performance of GeoTools commands. The downside is that these objects cannot be accessed using the 'previous' option after completion of the GeoTools command.
Default Value: 1000

Display command line options: Toggles the operational mode of GeoTools from being command line driven to dialog box driven and vice-versa.
Default Value: Disabled
