A coastline simplified at different tolerance settings
For best results, follow these guidelines:
Run Simplify Objects individually. If you perform Simplify Objects with
other cleanup actions, AutoCAD Map 3D performs Simplify Objects first,
regardless of its position in the Selected Actions list.
Use
deleting duplicates (page 793) before simplifying linear objects.
If your objects are lines, not plines, use Dissolve Pseudo Nodes to create a
single pline.
Simplify Objects removes width from polylines. Save your map before you
simplify linear objects, so you can return to the original lines if necessary.
NOTE Simplify Objects is not an interactive operation. AutoCAD Map 3D makes
the changes automatically during cleanup.

NOTE Simplify Objects works in two dimensions, ignoring Z-values. For
information about how to add and remove vertices from 3D polylines, see
