# FLATSHOT Command [GstarCAD 2022](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Index.md) → [Commands](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/(Commands).md) → [F](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/F/(F).md) ## Function Description: This command allows you to create a 2D representation of all 3D objects based on the current view. The edges of all 3D solids, surfaces, and meshes are projected line-of-sight onto a plane parallel to the viewing plane. The 2D representations of these edges are inserted as a block on the *XY* plane of the UCS. This block can be exploded for additional changes. The [FlatShot dialog box](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Commands/03%20Dialog%20Boxes/FlatShot%20Dialog%20Box.md) is displayed. ## Command Access: > **Icon:** >  > **Menu:** / > **Ribbon:** / > **Toolbar:** / > **Command:** FLATSHOT > **Alias:** / **Command Prompts: /**
