CAD Optimization Suite

Drawing Lag & DWG Performance Cleaner

Solve CAD viewport zoom lag, DWG The file is too large and the image opening is extremely slow. Interactively select stuck features and automatically generate deep cleaning AutoLISP Silently optimize macros.

DWG Database physical structure purification

DWG Database Structural Purification

LISP compiler

Causing symptoms and cleaning scope

Register Application Cleanup (Regapps)For oversized capacity (hundreds of lines in dozens of lines)MB) Deep cleaning of the drawings.

Reset Scale ListSolve the problem of drawings getting stuck and unresponsive for several seconds when the viewport is zoomed or switched between layouts..

Powerful PURGE redundant garbagePerform three rounds of deep PURGE to clear out irrelevant blocks and empty layers hidden at the bottom.

Database Physical Verification (AUDIT)Check the coordinates of 3D primitive nodes and automatically delete damage, Misplaced malformed data.

Unshelled DGN bloated linear style (DGN Style)Stripping of very large line style dictionaries leftover from MicroStation import.

AutoLISP Macro code real-time compilation

This can be done within CAD as `.lsp` File load or paste and run directly in the command line.

Instructions for use and operation:

Copy the code generated above to create a plain text file on the desktop, Rename to cleandwg.lsp.
Open the drawing that needs slimming and cleaning in AutoCAD, Drag the `cleandwg.lsp` file you just saved into the drawing viewport.
Enter in the CAD command bar: CLEANDWG and press Enter to silently purify and reorganize the drawing database.
Lazy solution: You can also directly copy the entire code, At the CAD command line press Ctrl+V Paste and run directly.
