CSV / Text Export Options
Configure tabular CSV or TXT output for CAD object, geometry, attribute, vertex, and segment information.
Overview
CSV / Text export is used when you need a table of CAD object information rather than a GIS vector dataset. You can export one row per object, one row per vertex, or one row per segment.
Fields to Export
| Field Group | Example Fields |
|---|---|
| General | Handle, object type, layer, color, linetype, and lineweight. |
| Point / Insertion | X, Y, Z, insertion X, insertion Y, and insertion Z. |
| Text Objects | Contents, rotation, height, style, and justification. |
| Block Data | Block name, insertion coordinates, scale, rotation, attributes, and attributes as fields. |
| Linear Geometry | Start point, end point, length, vertex count, closed state, and azimuth. |
| Polygon Geometry | Centroid, area, perimeter, vertex count, hatch pattern, hatch scale, and hatch angle. |
| Circle / Arc / Ellipse | Center, radius, diameter, circumference, angles, arc length, chord length, and ellipse radii. |
| Vertex / Segment Fields | Feature ID, part index, ring index, vertex index, segment index, and segment length. |
| WKT | WKT geometry for mixed or geometry-rich CSV/TXT output. |
Text Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Include field names in first row | Writes column headers in the first row of the file. |
| Delimiter | Choose comma, tab, semicolon, or space. |
| Decimal precision | Controls the number of decimal places used for numeric fields. |
Output Mode
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| One row per object | Writes one record for each exported CAD object. |
| One row per vertex | Writes separate records for vertices in eligible linear or polygon objects. |
| One row per segment | Writes separate records for each segment in eligible linear or polygon objects. |
Auto Split by Object Type
Enable auto split when you want separate CSV/TXT outputs for different object types instead of one combined file.
