Map tools

There was the wish to simplify some workflows in Map. Here are a few commands we have added:

WIN_FDO_CONVERT_LINES - converts FDO line features to ACAD polylines (layers and color is hard coded, only geometry is converted, not the display style) 
WIN_INTERSECT_LINES - draws point at intersection between two lines (CAD or FDO lines)
WIN_INTERSECT_LINEPOINT - draws point at intersection between existing line (CAD or FDO) and line defined by two points

WIN_FDOLAYER_ISOLATE - isolates the Map layer for selected features
WIN_FDOLAYER_TURNOFF - turns Map layer off for selected features
WIN_FDOLAYER_RESTORE - restores the original visibility settings for Map layers
WIN_FDOLAYERGROUP_VISIBILITY - lets you turn on/off visibility of Map layer groups

For easy use we have put all commands in toolbar:




Maybe there are useful for someone else. 

Instructions:

a) download
b) extract ZIP file
c) unblock the two dll files (otherwise they won't be loaded in Map)
d) copy the two "bundle" folders (WIN_FDO_DynFeatures.bundle, WIN_FDO_Layertools.bundle) to one of Map's default plugin folders (C:\Users\<<user>>\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins
 or C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins)
e) start Map - dlls will be loaded automatically

Language: german, english.
WIN_FDO_DynFeatures - will not run with Civil
WIN_FDO_Layertools - should run with Map and Civil

Both dlls are more or less tested with Map 2013 but newer version should work as well.

I don't have the time to finish the tools. They do their work in our environment. If you find bugs let me know.
