Batch Layout Generator is a specialized automation plugin engineered for AutoCAD and Civil 3D professionals. It significantly accelerates the drafting process by automating the creation of layouts and viewports along any given alignment or polyline.

Key Features:

  • Automated Layout Generation: Instantly create hundreds of layouts based on a predefined path.
  • Dynamic Viewport Alignment: Viewports automatically orient and scale to follow the trajectory of complex civil infrastructure alignments (roads, pipelines, railways).
  • Custom Naming Conventions: Apply sequential numbering or custom naming to generated layouts for streamlined project organization.
  • Performance Optimized: Built on modern .NET architecture to handle large-scale dwg files with minimal processing time.

Workflow Integration:

Simply type BATCHLAYOUT in the command line, select your base polyline or alignment, define your viewport scale and layout template, and let the plugin generate the complete sheet set. This eliminates hours of repetitive manual drafting, allowing engineers to focus on design accuracy.
