    Hi,

    I have sent you the flatten lisp which comes with 2004, it is much better
    than the older one which was never able to flatten arcs in the view you
    wanted, this one does.

    THANKS!!! I tried it and it seems to to sort thru polylines quite well. But
    I was refering to something that puts ALL Z coordinates at zero. So that
    when viewed from the front, a plan will look like a straight line.

    Thanks,

    Seems to work except for lines within defined blocks. Now Im wondering if
    there's an autolisp prog that will redefine blocks and make that change.

    Steve.
