FLATSHOT — Flatshot

Projects the view's 3D solids to a 2D block with visible and hidden lines.

• Command: FLATSHOT · Global name: _FLATSHOT · Alias: FSHOT
• Ribbon: Home › Draw

Projects the 3D solids of the current view to 2D geometry (visible and hidden lines) and inserts it as a block in the current space, like AutoCAD's FLATSHOT. Hidden-line removal reuses the same z-buffer as the 3D plot.

Usage

1. Orbit to the 3D view you want to flatten (for example an isometric).
2. Type FLATSHOT (or APLANADA) or click it in the ribbon.
3. Specify the insertion point of the flattened drawing.

Specify the insertion point of the flattened drawing:

Result

• Visible lines go on the current layer.
• Hidden lines go on the OCULTAS layer (gray), created if it does not exist.
• Everything is grouped into a block and inserted at the given point.

Notes

• The projection is orthographic, on the view plane.
• See also PRESSPULL and SLICE.

Notes

• No dialog box in this version: it is used from the command line.
