2D Polyline Selection (PEDIT)
Quick Reference
If you select a 2D polyline, the following prompt is displayed:
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Enter an option [Close/Join/Width/Edit vertex/Fit/Spline/Decurve/Ltype
gen/Reverse/Undo]: Enter an option or press Enter to end the command
NOTE You can select a single arc or line segment, also called a subobject, within
a polyline by pressing the Ctrl key when you click over it.
If the polyline you select is a closed polyline, Open replaces the Close option
in the prompt. You can edit a 2D polyline if its normal is parallel to and in
the same direction as the Z axis of the current UCS.
Close
Creates the closing segment of the polyline, connecting the last segment with
the first. The polyline is considered open unless you close it using the Close
option.
Open
Removes the closing segment of the polyline. The polyline is considered closed
unless you open it using the Open option.
Join
Adds lines, arcs, or polylines to the end of an open polyline and removes the
curve fitting from a curve-fit polyline. For objects to join the polyline, their
endpoints must touch unless you use the Multiple option at the first PEDIT
prompt. In this case, you can join polylines that do not touch if the fuzz
distance is set to a value large enough to include the endpoints.
Jointype
Sets the method of joining selected polylines.
Extend Joins the selected polylines by extending or trimming the segments
to the nearest endpoints.
