Polygon Feature Class to CAD Lines (Samples)

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.
