Topic: Close a spline?

Frankly didn’t expect to see so much interest in this.
This is a test data set.

Cool .. was just curious.

Let me know how it works for you - I have not tested it heavily.

Are you doing tree canopies also? if so, out of curiosity - what state are you in?

It looks to work well Cary.  I didn't use it this time, because I had a sub-contractor carry out the topo.  I popped back to measure the spreads and added them manually.  Next time I have a job with asymmetric spreads I will hopefully be making use of this.

Thanks P

Glad to hear you can make use of it.
This code could be modified fairly easily to allow you to pick the point (i.e. tree trunk center) on screen from a topo survey vs. Pulling the points form the csv. I have a similar one I use for basic tree symbology.

This is a snippet from my other tool where it gets the point from user input instead of the csv.

Code: [Select]

     (while (and (setq x  (car *lst*))
                  (setq pt (getpoint "\nSpecify Point for Block: ")))
       
(if (vl-catch-all-error-p
              (setq OBJ
                (vl-catch-all-apply (function vla-InsertBlock)
                  (list spc (vlax-3D-point (trans pt 1 0)) bNme 1. 1. 1. *ROT*))))

          (princ "\n** Error Inserting Block **")
