Hi,

I have sent you the flatten lisp which comes with 2004, it is much better
than the older one which was never able to flatten arcs in the view you
wanted, this one does.

THANKS!!! I tried it and it seems to to sort thru polylines quite well. But
I was refering to something that puts ALL Z coordinates at zero. So that
when viewed from the front, a plan will look like a straight line.

WHY would you want to look at a 'flat plan' from the front?
hmmmmmmmm

Thanks,

Seems to work except for lines within defined blocks. Now Im wondering if
there's an autolisp prog that will redefine blocks and make that change.
