AutoCad LT2003 I work in 2D wire form. When I cut and past elements together Z can be anywhere. It becomes a problem trimming , chamfering etc. Is there any way to flatten the drawing so that Z is always zero?
Copy and paste the following into the command line
C^C_move;_all;;0,0,0;0,0,1e99;_move;_p;;0,0,0;0,0,-1e99;

I have copied an pasted every copy of this macro I have found on all sorts of blogs, etc, etc. into the command line to no avail. Using AutoCAD LT 2013. Basically says " unkown command...press F1 for help..." Is there any new update?
I would not recommend doing that at all.
The macro is incomplete:
^C^C_move;_all;;0,0,0;0,0,1e99;_move;_p;;0,0,0;0,0,-1e99;
You're better off copy/paste the above macro into a coded line entry in CUI assigned to a button or menu pulldown selection.
Here is how to do that: http://www.cad-notes.com/exploring-autocad-cui-creating-a-command-part-2/
Now you will always have it. permanently.
If you only want to type at the commandline, then do it like this:
_move
_all
0,0,0
0,0,1e99
_move;
p
0,0,0
0,0,-1e99
Done.
that is genius, thank you !! Now the suspect arc lines have dissappeared from the viewport. I zoom extents, and everything that is left turns to points, even with a regen. Any additional help with this basic discription?
