Flatten Not working on Blocks
« on: January 23, 2018, 07:13:45 AM »
Hi,

I have used Express Tools FLATTEN command as well as
      (command "MOVE" ss "" "0,0,0" "0,0,1e99")
      (command "MOVE" ss "" "0,0,0" "0,0,-1e99")
for moving my objects to Zero Elevation.
It works fine for all objects except Blocks. Any way to put all objects within a block to Zero elevation ?

No easy fix imo.
Normal procedue. Refedit and fix in manually, isn't that an option?

We get drawings from client which contains thousands of entities and blocks, it is very difficult to modify each one of them manually.

Maybe the blocks are not so complex to run it with some script or lisp or
