Options within the command
- Done
- Executes the overkill procedure.
- Ignore
- Sets the properties to ignore.

- All
- All properties are taken into account.

- segment witDth
- Specifies if the width property of polyline segments is ignored.
- Break polyline
- Polyline segments are kept intact even if the duplicates are deleted.
- Yes
- Optimizes polyline entities.
- No
- Polyline entities are not optimized.
- combine parTial overlap
- Partially overlapping entities are unified into a single entity.
- combine Endtoend
- Collinear lines and polyline segments having coinciding endpoints are unified into a single entity or segment.
- Associativity
- Associative entities are not processed.
- delete or Move duplicates
- Determines what to do with duplicate entities.
- Move
- Entities are moved to Overkill Layer.
- Combine duplicate block definitions
- Searches the drawing for duplicate block definitions and replaces all such block instances by the most recent of these duplicates.
- Purge duplicate block definitions
- Deletes duplicate block definitions.
