Summary
A 2D polyline is a connected sequence of segments created as a single planar
object. You can create straight line segments, arc segments, or a combination
of the two.
NOTE A temporary plus-shaped marker displays at the first point. This marker can
be useful when you create long and complicated polylines. It is removed when
you complete the polyline.
The
PLINEGEN (page 1436) system variable controls the linetype pattern display
around and the smoothness of the vertices of a 2D polyline. Setting PLINEGEN
to 1 generates new polylines in a continuous pattern around the vertices of
the completed polyline. Setting PLINEGEN to 0 starts and ends the polyline
with a dash at each vertex. PLINEGEN does not apply to polylines with tapered
segments.
