GcEqual

Works with Bricscad (Windows) Classic, Pro and Platinum, Bricscad (Linux) Classic, Pro and Platinum

Constrains arcs and circles to the same radius, or lines and polyline segments to the same length.

This command is equivalent to the Equal option of the GEOMCONSTRAINT command.

Accessing the Command

command bar: gcequal

menu bar: Parametric | 2D Constraints | Equal

toolbar: 2D Constraints |

: gcequal

Prompts you in the command bar:

Select first entity or [Multiple]: (Select a line, arc, circle or polyline segment.)

Select second entity: (Select a second entity of the same kind (straight or arched) as the first entity.)

The dimensions of the two entities are constrained: lines an linear polyline segments are resized to the same length; circles, arcs and arc polyline segments are resized to the same radius.

Command Options

Option	Description
Multiple
Select first entity	Select a line, arc, circle or polyline segment.
Select second entity	Select multiple entities to be made equal to the first entity. All selected entities must be of the same kind (straight or arched). Right click to stop selecting entities. Segments of the same polyline are accepted.
