Polygon Feature Class to CAD Lines

Available with Advanced license.

Summary

Converts polygon feature classes to a CAD file with bounding lines. The coincident lines where polygons touch will be simplified to a single line.

Legacy:
This tool has been deprecated. For more information, see An overview of the Samples toolbox.

Usage

  • Output line features will be created for each input line, and polygon boundary. If input lines or polygon boundaries cross, the output lines will be split at those locations.

  • Multiple input features will be written to the same output CAD file.

Syntax

arcpy.samples.PolygonFeatureClasstoCADLines(input_features, output_file, output_type, {seed_file})
ParameterExplanationData Type
input_features

The polygon feature class that will be used to create CAD lines.

Layer | Table View
output_file

The output CAD file that contains the bounding lines from the polygon feature classes.

String
output_type

Specifies the output CAD type and version.

CAD Drawing Dataset
seed_file
(Optional)

An existing CAD drawing whose contents, documents, and layer properties will be used for all new output CAD files.
