Import/Export points and lines.
Command
line : GT_IMPEX
The GT_IMPEX command
allows point and linear objects to be exported to a variety of
ASCII Text formats or imported from ASCII files. You need to specify
before-hand whether you are exporting or importing linear features or
point features. These two feature types cannot be mixed during an import
or export operation.
A point feature
includes points, blocks, shapes and text. A linear feature includes lines,
polylines and splines. Curve-fitted polylines will be processed with only
their defining control points. In other words, the curve-fit points will
be ignored.
General Options:
The
General options section covers parameters like file name / format etc
which are applicable for both import and export operations.
ASCII file Format: The data format to be used can be selected from
the drop-down list box. This can be either of the following formats:
- NE
- NEZ
- NEZD
- PEN
- PNE
- PENZ
- PNEZ
- PNEZD
- EN
- ENZ
- ENZD
- PENZD
- DNEZ
- Other
where,
P - Point Number
N - Northing (X coordinate of the point)
E - Easting (Y coordinate of the point)
Z - Elevation (Z coordinate of the point)
D - Description (A short text attribute describing the point)
Other - This will allow user
defined object formats to be used. This is not yet operational and will be
available in a future version.
Stacked fields (one
per line):
Selecting this box allows P, E, N, Z and D to be on separate lines one
below the other instead of being on one single line separated by a
delimiter.
During Import
operations, a comment character can be specified to enable lines starting
with that character to be ignored. Exporting of data can be done based on
delimited fields or column-wise. Accordingly, you can set a delimiter
character or specify the start column positions in the ‘Column widths’
dialog.
Export Options: These
settings relate to exporting of data from AutoCAD / BricsCAD.

Object
descriptions to use:
This section specifies the object description that can be used by each of
the object types. The basic properties of objects like layer-name,
block/shape name, attribute values (for blocks) or object data (if AutoCAD
Map is running) can be specified. This will go into the Description field.
Import Options: These
settings relate to import of ASCII data into AutoCAD / BricsCAD.
Create point features as: Point
features can be created as points, blocks or text objects. The
descriptions of incoming point features can be used as layer names, point
numbers or stored as block attributes / object data as applicable.
Multiple description
import: makes possible for text files containing
additional description data to be imported into the drawing as
attributes, object data or plain text. Until now, only one description
field was possible via the format descriptor PENZD,.. etc. Now, you can
bring in as many and all of the descriptions
into the DWG

handle-Linked Objects
Command
line : GT_VIEWLINKED
Using the GT_VIEWLINKED
command, you can view and correlate information
between an ASCII / CSV file and its drawing by selecting a record and have the command zoom to the
corresponding object in the drawing.
The handle of the object is used as a key to make this connection.
Using the GT_IMPEX command, you can export the object
handle into an export file. When used
in conjunction with GT_IMPEX command, this provides a useful debugging tool to view and check output
records.
