The ReducePolyline command uses the Douglas-Peucker algorithm to reduce vertices of a polyline. Another algorithm is used to remove short segments from the simplified polyline. Segments in a straight line will be merged into a single segment.
Steps
-
Select one or more polylines.
- Enter a number for reduction tolerance.
- Only polylines (consisting of degree 1 segments) can be reduced.
