Mark Non-Tangent Corners
The Mark Non-Tangent Corners
tool flags corners where two
segments meet at a very small angle — corners that are almost, but not quite, tangent.
These slight kinks are usually unintended and come from imported data; once found they
can be smoothed into a true tangent or sharpened into a clear corner.
Using the tool
-
Enter the Min Angle and Max Angle in the input bar to set the range of corner angles to look for.
-
Select the Mark Non-Tangent Corners tool, then press Enter.
Every corner whose turn angle falls between the minimum and maximum is marked with a spot marker. By default the range is 0.1°–5.0°, which catches shallow kinks while ignoring true tangents (0°) and intentional sharp corners.
| Only polylines on the default layer (layer 0) are checked, and the end points of open polylines are ignored. |
This tool only inspects the drawing; it does not change any geometry.
