rock1 Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 Is there a separate gap detection command in autocad that highlights tiny gaps of closed polygons? I render my drawings in photoshop and often there are small gaps that appear in my work or the work that I get from others. Right now only hpgaptol and using hatch command highlights the small gaps.

CyberAngel Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 Here's a LISP routine to mark gaps: GAP Here's an Autodesk discussion on the topic. Both found by googling "autocad gap detection." 1 Quote
rock1 Posted July 18, 2019 Author Posted July 18, 2019 I just tried on the following drawing. I set the gap limit to 0.5. The gap is almost 0.2 but still goes undetected. I'm using Autocad 2020. TEST DRAWING_THURS.dwg Quote
CyberAngel Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 My first guess was that, once the routine found a match, it went on to another point. But after looking at the code, I believe it takes care of that potential oversight. I opened your drawing. Maybe it's my units setting, but when I measure that gap, it's 1.66. That's outside the tolerance, so it wouldn't be flagged. Quote
