Batch Layout Generator

Green Road Group

Advanced, automated layout and viewport generation tool for Autodesk® AutoCAD® Verticals & Autodesk® Civil 3D®. Features interactive JIG placement and auto-twisting.

Free

Tired of manually creating layouts, setting up viewports, calculating scales, and twisting angles for winding road alignments?

The Batch Layout Generator is an advanced custom plugin designed to drastically reduce plan production time for civil engineers and drafters. Instead of spending hours on repetitive plotting tasks, this tool reduces the workflow to just a few clicks.

Key Features:

  • Interactive JIG Mode: Dynamically place, rotate, and stamp viewports directly in Model Space using your mouse.

  • Auto-Twist for Alignments: Select rotated frames along a curved Autodesk® Civil 3D® alignment, and the plugin automatically calculates and applies the exact TwistAngle to keep viewports horizontal on the sheet.

  • Grid Array Generation: Create massive matrices of frames with precise X/Y offsets instantly.

  • Intelligent Scaling: Automatically extracts the scale from your source layout template using CHSPACE logic.

  • Modern UI: A clean, fast WPF interface with real-time dynamic previews of your layout matrix.

Take your plan production to the next level with this automated solution!

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Developed using C# .NET and WPF. Fully compatible with standard AutoCAD and all vertical products (Civil 3D, Architecture, Map 3D, etc.). The tool handles complex UCS and WCS coordinate transformations automatically.

  • For the standard "Orthogonal" and "Rotated" selection modes, the selected frames must be closed, 4-vertex polylines. Polylines with arcs or more than 4 vertices will be ignored during the batch process. No other known issues at this time.
  • Sometimes it requires an AutoCAD restart to load the app.
