3DPolyVertex2Table

Short description

🧩 3DPolyVertex2Table creates an AutoCAD table containing the X Y and Z coordinates of every vertex from a selected 3DPolyline.
🔢 The selected polyline vertices are marked in the drawing with matching numeric labels and small red circles.
📋 After the coordinate table is generated the user places it at the required drawing location.

Command:

Main command: 3CORD

Description:

📐 The command accepts one AcDb3dPolyline and extracts its complete coordinate array.
📊 A four column table is generated with Point X Y and Z fields.
🔢 The default source configuration labels vertices with numbers while an adjustment variable can switch the internal markup mode to letters.
🎯 Coordinate precision is configured to four decimal places in the current source.
📌 The table is initially created in ModelSpace then copied and pasted interactively at the user selected insertion point.
⭕ Every 3D polyline vertex receives a text marker and a small circle created with current color temporarily set to red.

Helper function: (if any)​

Extract_3DPoly_Vertexes reads the AcDb3dPolyline Coordinates property.
Alph_Num generates alphabetical marker values when letter mode is enabled.
vla-AddTable creates the coordinate table.
vlax-curve-GetPointAtParam supports placement of the vertex labels.

Functionalities:

✅ 3DPolyline vertex extraction – reads all X Y Z coordinates from the selected 3D polyline.
✅ Coordinate table creation – creates an AutoCAD TABLE object.
✅ Point numbering – labels vertices sequentially by default.
✅ Letter markup option – the source adjustment section can switch labels from numbers to letters.
✅ Four decimal precision – uses coordinate precision value 4 in the current adjustment settings.
✅ Interactive table placement – lets the user place the generated table in the drawing.
✅ Drawing vertex markers – creates text labels and small red circles at each source vertex.
✅ Undo grouping – wraps the drawing changes in an AutoCAD undo mark.

Result:

🎯 The result is a coordinated table and drawing markup set that directly relates every 3D polyline vertex to its X Y Z values.
📋 This is useful for survey geometry design review setting out and coordinate documentation.
