How to calculate monthly advance in polylines/3dpolylines?

[toxicsquall]

Good morning,

I have a big problem: I need to make an outline of which was advanced on a road. But I'm doing this activity manually. I tried to use the OVERKILL, but it only deletes the 3dpolylines/polylines that are overlapping and not both. I need only what is different between them and make a REGION or a Closed Polyline of the result.

Can you help me? Is there any lisp or a command that can make this?

I'm sending the attached file of what I want in order to make an example.

So do you use different layers dependent upon the date? Or what exactly differentiates the two regions?

[toxicsquall]

Yes, we use different layers or different colors to know with are the months, and the regions are in one other layer. But I don't mind or care about the layers, it can be all in one layer.

What I need is just the region or the closed polyline, from the difference.

I don't know if I made myself clear, but any other doubts just ask me. Thanks a lot.

Have you used the LineWorkShrinkWrap command? I think this is what you are asking about, but I am still a little unsure. If so, that command should do exactly what you're wanting. Let me know if I am misunderstanding though and I can help guide you w/ the coding.

I don't have AutoCad 3D Civil....

what I'm doing right now is HATCHing the area and after that GENERATE BOUNDARY.

Then after that, I purge the HATCHs and keep the boundaries.

Then I join all the boundaries with the ECO lisp, as bellow:

But it's taking me a lot of work...

What are the other options for me that don't have an Autocad Civil?
