Hi
I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas how I can speed up the follwing process:
The attached dwg shows the following in a graphical manner, by the way.
1 - Take a 3D polyline representing a curve in a road. This is topographical survey data with too few vertices to accurately show the true road line (vertices currently only at each 'surveyed point').
2 - Create a spline (cubic, zero fit tolerance) through each 3D polyline vertex.
3 - Break the spline at each 3D polyline vertex. This is to ensure that the end result has a vertex at each 'surveyed point'.
4 - Use pedit to convert the splines to 3d polylines.
5 - Join the resulting 3D polyline to form one string.
The reason I convert the spline is to enable the drawing to be used by an earthworks package when creating surface models.
I've tried CAB's BreakAll routines to automatically break the spline but this wasn't written to do what I'm trying to do and so misses some of the breaks.
I'm hoping that one of you will have a routine that does the above with one click. .....I live in hope.
