Create polylines from existing objects

Polylines are unique and useful objects that provide possibilities for which simple lines and arcs cannot offer. Rather than trace over existing lines and arcs to create a polyline, these existing lines and arcs can often be converted into a polyline object.

After completing this video, you will be able to:

  • Transform existing geometry into polylines.
  • Use the PEDIT and JOIN commands to create polylines.

Any referenced datasets can be downloaded from "Module downloads" in the module overview.
