Remove Small Segments

Remove Small Segments

The Remove Small Segments Remove Small Segments tool deletes very short segments from the drawing. Tiny segments are a common artifact of imported geometry and can cause problems during cutting; this tool finds them and lets you remove the ones inside a chosen area.

Removing small segments

  1. Enter the Threshold Length in the input bar. Every segment shorter than this length is marked with a spot marker so you can see what will be affected.

  2. Select the Remove Small Segments tool.

  3. Click one corner of a rectangular area, then click the opposite corner.

All marked segments whose midpoint falls inside the rectangle are removed. If every segment of a polyline is below the threshold, the whole polyline is deleted; otherwise only the small segments are removed and the polyline is rebuilt from the remaining geometry.

The threshold length is limited to the range 0–10 units.

Demonstration

The video below shows the application:
