Rectify


Drawing|Misc|Rectify

Rectify a polyline or a polygon. The command rectifies the angles to 90 degrees.

Enter tolerance
Only angles within the tolerance will be rectified.
The tolerance default is 20 = 20 gon. Gon can be changed to degrees in system settings.
0 = already straight angle, no rectifying will be done.
Max: 50.

Adjust the lengths
Tick off this box to retain the lengths of the elements.
Tick and select Auto, the nearest centimeter, the nearest decimeter or the nearest meter.
Nearest meters: All lengths will have even meters.

Create Report
Tick to create a report. The report lists the new coordinates and how much they have been changed.

Note!

Depending on where on the rectangle you click, you start from this segment. The line you click on is the "correct" one, and the following lines will be rectified from this one.

Clicking on the top line, near the right corner, will make the direction go towards this right corner and rectifying the angles in this direction. Clicking near the left corner, the direction will go to the left and rectifying the angles in this direction.
