FLATTEN Command

With the FLATTEN command, you can automatically specify the elevation (Z value) of certain commands as 0.

With certain commands (such as TRIM, FILLET, and JOIN) and other tools (snap, measure, and dimension), you need to specify the elevation (Z value) as 0. Otherwise, the commands and tools do not work as expected. The FLATTEN command ensures that the elevation is 0.

To access the FLATTEN command:

Do the following:
  • On the ribbon, click XtraTools > Modify > Flatten.
  • On the menu, click XtraTools > Modify > Flatten.
  • Enter FLATTEN in the command window.
