    Thinning out excessive vertices

    Thanks for all the help. I believe I have found a solution to the problem - at least for now I hope. I blocked it as suggested and so far that seems to be working. Again, thanks all and have a nice weekend. JD

    Thinning out excessive vertices

    Hello all, I have a 2d drawing that I am trying to import into another program. The polylines have an excessive amount of vertices. Is there a way to thin out these vertices without losing the contour of the line? I tried breaking the drawing into pieces to no avail, either ACAD or the...

    Line follow command?

    Thanks SEMott. Still trying to muddle through this. I tried what you said and it is not working for me. Do you know if you have to window or highlight a work area? I found my manual but still not helping me yet. This is driving me crazy.

    Line follow command?

    Thanks Welshman. I believe there is a specific line follow command. You have to window the area you want to work in. Right now I am just tracing with osnap off, but for what I want to do I know there is an easier way. I am still looking for the users manual. Thanks again.

    Line follow command?

    Nobody is familiar with this command? If anyone has the slightest idea of how to follow a raster line with a line or polyline please help me out. At the moment I cannot find the manual for CAD Overlay. Thanks again. JD

    Line follow command?

    I am using the CAD Overlay program. I have imported a raster image and am tracing over a coastline on a nautical chart. Does anyone know of a way to window the lines and use the line follow command? I know it can be done, I am just not sure how to do it. Any help would be appreciated. Thank...
