How to optimize polylines converted from lwpolylines?
Symptoms
How can I optimize polylines converted from lwpolylines?
Cause
I can save disk space and memory by using the optimized format (lwpolyline).
Solution
The PLINETYPE system variable controls the use of optimized 2-D polylines in BricsCAD. PLINETYPE controls the use of optimized polylines for creating new polylines using the PLINE command, while it also controls conversion of previously created polylines.
- 0 = BricsCAD does not convert previously created polylines when opening the drawing file. Any new polylines created using the PLINE command are not optimized.
- 1 = BricsCAD does not convert previously created polylines when opening the drawing file. Any new polylines created using the PLINE command are optimized.
- 2 = BricsCAD converts previously created polylines when opening the drawing file. Any new polylines created using the PLINE command are optimized.
Note: See the CONVERTPOLY command.
