TSS Commands

TSSI – ThinkSpatial Surface Information

Output a CSV with all surface information. Best used when you multiple volume surfaces and you want to know the Max/Min for them all so you can then have one surface legend to cover them all. The CSV will be located within the folder directory where your DWG is located

TIP

This is helpful when you have several volume surfaces within the DWG and you would like a single heatmap contour interval to cover all the surfaces. It will create a CSV which lists the surface properties for each surface within the DWG. Simply look at the Contour

TSOD – ThinkSpatial Property Set Data Table

Present Property Set Data within a Table format.

TSBREAK – Thinkspatial Break

AutoCAD Break to retain Property Set Data

TSWD – ThinkSpatial Write Data to Objects

Use this to add PSD to objects. You can extract from existing.

TSCOPYOD – Copy Attribute to Object

Select the object with the attribute data then select the objects you want to add it to. This mirrors the match properties so colour and layer name is copied across.

Polyline to 3dFace

Sometimes you will receive a file with 3D polylines which are triangles but not 3d Faces. This tool converts these to 3D faces. The first step is to use the AutoCAD Civil 3D tool to convert 2D Polylines to 3D polylines. You may need to use this tool over seperate sections of the surface you are converting as it is slow when converting a large amount of polylines. Once you have 3D Polylines, type TSS and select the Utilities TAB at the top. Select the Polyline to 3D Face button and they will be converted to 3D Faces.

Layer Renamer Tool

Uses attribute data to modify layer name
