Accurate Split

Function Description

Accurately Split line objects with different ways of breaking.

  • The features of the Accurate Split line object apply to both line layers and CAD layers.
  • The break mode is divided into two-segment and multi-segment settings. When Two-segment is selected, you can select to break by percentage or distance:
    • By Distance: Accurately Split the line from the endpoint by using the specified distance value. When the break is complete, the line object is split into two segments.
    • By Percent: Accurately splits the line from the endpoint by using a percentage of the total length of the line object. When the break is complete, the line object is split into two segments.

    When Multi-segment is selected, you can select to break by the number of segments or by spacing:

      Break the line object by number of
    • segments, which allows you to break the line object into several segments of equal length by the specified number of segments. When the break is complete, the line object is divided into the specified number of segments, creating one or more new objects.
    • By spacing: Using the specified spacing size, Application automatically calculates the number of segments broken. The last segment with less than one spacing value will also be broken by one segment. For example, if the length of the line object is 13 and the gap size is set to 5, the line object is broken into two segments with a length of 5 and one segment with a length of 3 after breaking by the gap.
  • An interruption of a closed object. In SuperMap, a closed line object (such as a circle, rectangle, etc.) Is considered to be an object whose start and end points coincide. And the starting point and the end point of this coincidence are called endpoints. For closed line objects, the system automatically breaks the ends of the closed object at the same time when you perform a break operation.
  • Break the result description. The original line object is deleted, and multiple new line objects are generated. Their System Field: attributes are assigned by the system, and the Non-System Field: attributes of the original line object are retained.

Operating instructions

The break operation will be described in detail below by taking Break into Multiple Segments as an example.

  1. Select the line object you want to break in the Current Editable Layer.
  2. In the Gallery control in the Object Editing group on the Object Operation tab, click the Precision Break button to perform a precision break operation.
  3. In the pop-up Precise Break Settings dialog box, you can browse the object information, including object ID and object length, and set the Accurate Split mode. Two types of interruption are provided: Two-segment and Multi-segment. Select a break method as required for the operation. At the same time, enter the broken parameter value in Parameter Settings.
  4. Click the OK button to complete the operation. The broken object is highlighted in red and blue in the Map.
Caution:
Accurate Split

is not supported for arc, 3-point arc, and spline objects in CAD Dataset.
