This program will connect points with the same description by lines.

## **Procedure**

Use the checkboxes under the **Process** column to specify which description you wish to connect with linework. Alternatively, you can use the **Select All** or **Clear All** buttons to quickly select all or deselect all descriptions.

The **Linework Type** can be selected to be **2D Line**, **3D Line**, **2D Polyline** or **3D Polyline**, which defines which type of lines are created (Lines vs Polylines) and if elevation is used. (2D vs 3D)

The layer used to generate all the linework is defined by the **Layer for lines** dropdown, which will bring up the list of existing layers in your drawing.

Once you press **Process**, the linework will be generated by connecting in order of ascending point numbers for each description.
