4.1. Overview

Super Tools is the home for drafting utilities that sit alongside standard Modify commands: geometry cleanup, polyline simplification, and (as the suite grows) best-fit lines, stationing, and similar helpers inspired by Autodesk Express Tools and third-party toolkits such as CadTools.
