      I have imported an autocad site plan that was drawn 3D in the Z direction. Is there a ruby that will flatten all lines down to 0,0?

      Thanks

        Flatten at Smustard:

        But you can also use the drape tool to "project" all the lines onto a 2D face at 0 height.

        TIG also has something but I cannot remember:

            The JS Align tool sort of worked, but not fully. Some of the curved lines went very wacky and swooped way up. But, it is better than it was.

              I used the drape tool. That worked. Thank you.
