  • Delete: deletes CAD objects.

  • Offset: creates an object parallel to reference object at a defined distance.

  • Distance intersection: calculates the position of a new topographic point located at a certain distance from two reference points.

  • Intersection by 4 points: calculates the position of a topographic point that is on the intersection of two straight lines.

  • Distance and offset: calculates the position of a new topographic point referring to a reference object.

  • Lengthen: extends an object like a line, a polyline or an arc to a defined length. Or extend a line defined by two points which also indicates the direction where to create the point.

  • Explode: transforms selected polylines such as lines and circles into the base elements composing it.

  • Invert: reverses the vertex order of a drawing element.

  • Join: merges several entities so that they have one point in common. Example: Multiple lines that must be managed as a single polyline.

  • Edit polyline: allows to edit a polyline, for example inserting new vertexes, deleting a segment, inverting the polyline, etc.

  • Object properties: accesses the management of the graphical properties of the selected objects such as layer, colour and linetype.
