Thread: area command fails in 2d due to z coordinates differing??

    area command fails in 2d due to z coordinates differing??

    I am trying to get a simple area in autocad 2004 lt.
    When I connect the points I get a message that says the points had differing
    z points. I am in 2d mode and all line properties show "0" z coordinate
    values. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Properties only displays to the nearest rounding point: actually highlight
    every Z entry, and manually type 0 to confirm.

    If that still does not work, in the LT discussion areas are posted several
    macros you can use to flatten entities in other ways.

    2D mode means nothing if you are selecting points that are not on the same
    plane. AutoCAD and LT work in all three directions.

    Also, check your linear precision display LUPREC. Set it t 8 to display a higher accuracy for ID.
