Flatten
Leo 25 Oct 2013
A feature I always wanted and is great to turn 3D drawings into 2D is the "Flatten" command; it should turn all Z factors to 0.
It's possible now by selecting vectors one by one and change the properties but of course, this is very time consuming.
Even AutoCAD didn't have that earlier (maybe now?) and a hand written LISP was made available from a 3rd party.

You're right; that would be handy. How would you want to handle instances of 3D blocks, or objects that are non-parallel to the WCS?

Yes, I agree with you. Even better if it can have similar function like sheet metal function in Solidworks. It will be perfect function.

FLATTEN command is under development now, probably it will be available in the following version of nanoCAD

Not yet appearently...
I think it's quite easy to develop an easy LISP to do this.
When I was in Autocad many years ago and the command was not avaiable someone gave me a LISP which worked perfectly.

NanoCAD Plus 7 will be abailable soon, probably next week.
Flatten is realized.
