Points Import for IntelliCAD - Point Text file import plug-in for IntelliCAD
Points Import for IntelliCAD is a Point Text file import plug-in for
IntelliCAD®. This plug-in gives IntelliCAD the ability to import point
data from text files.
Point data is commonly stored in plain text file as a series of x, y and
z coordinates, separated by a comma, space, tab, semicolon or a custom
separator. These text files may also contain other information about the
points such as point number and point descriptions. Moreover, points
from a survey may be stored in the Northing, Easting, Elevation format.
Points Import for IntelliCAD extracts the point information from text
files and creates point entities in the active drawing. Optionally it
can also create text entities for point numbers, point descriptions and
point coordinates. The points can also be joined by a chain of lines, a
polyline or a spline. This is helpful when the points in the point file
are stored in a particular order such as a path of motion of an object,
points on the boundary of an object or hole in an object, etc.
Points Import for IntelliCAD supports the following point file formats:
X, Y, Z
