eraze double solids

Dear Community,

I am unable to remove duplicate solids neither with the ACAD CLEAN UP command nor with the file Doppelt.lsp, which I found in the web.

Simple drawing structure: I draw a rectangle and copy it so that two rectangles are next to each other. I extrude one of them into a cube. Now I select both objects and copy them again by choosing 0,0,0 as the base point and shift point. Selecting all objects confirms to me that there are now 4 objects in the drawing, i.e. two congruent rectangles and two congruent cubes. No matter which of the two cleaning methods mentioned above I use, only the double rectangle is removed, but not the double cube...? I work with AutoCAD 2015

Do you have any idea how to remove double solids from a drawing?


Thanks and kind regards,

Michael

OP

you copied and did not paste and have 4 objects?

or you did paste and the objects are coincidental?

UNION the two solids into one.

If you know that there are two overlapping solids, you click once on the solid and delete it. You will delete one and another will remain. There is no command to do this automatically.

Hi Paulimapa

 

sorry for my late feedback. It took some time for me to learn how to integrate Lisp files into Auto CAD but now I know and the file you've suggested work very well. Exactly that what I was looking for.

 

Many thanks,

Michael
