    <description>&lt;P&gt;Dear all,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am having an issue regarding the extraction of data from drawing. Shapes are defined as polylines, or could be defined as block.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What I want is to export the area of the red shapes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Extracting through the attribute data (-attext) or similar function did not work.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Similar extraction was successfully obtained from DATAEXTRACTION command which is not the option in the AutoCAD version for MacOS.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;With kind regards&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screenshot 2020-12-10 at 10.36.11.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/854541i2B2FDB795C224EBD/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="Screenshot 2020-12-10 at 10.36.11.png" alt="Screenshot 2020-12-10 at 10.36.11.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Welcome to Autodesk Forums!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;Vedran,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Yes, DATAEXTRACTION command is not&amp;nbsp;available on Mac.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;But you can, for example, use FIELDs and AutoCAD table to extract area of hatches:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;1/ Create simple table in the drawing and use one of its column to collect information about area of hatches&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;2/ Activate table cell, use Table Visor to insert FIELD in it - in Insert Field window&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;select Objects -&amp;gt; Object -&amp;gt; pick one of the hatches as object type, adjust Area property format, pick on Choose&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;3/ Repeat step #2 to extract the hatch areas you need&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;4/ Now you have table with areas of all hatches&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;5/ Use&amp;nbsp;TABLEEXPORT command to export the table to CSV file&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;6/ Open resulting CSV file in Numbers or other spreadsheet application of your&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;choice.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
