■ DIVIDE, MEASURE, and the Object option of AREA and HATCH see only
the fit spline, not the frame.
■ STRETCH refits the spline to the stretched frame after a spline is stretched.
The Join option of PEDIT decurves the spline and discards the spline
information of the original and any added polylines. Once the Join operation
is complete, you can fit a new spline to the resulting polyline.
The Edit Vertex options of PEDIT have the following effect:
■ The Next and Previous options move the X marker only to points on the
frame of the spline, whether visible or not.
■ The Break option discards the spline.
■ The Insert, Move, Straighten, and Width options automatically refit the
spline.
■ The Tangent option has no effect on splines.
Object snap uses only the spline-fit curve itself, not the frame. If you want to
snap to the frame control points, use PEDIT to recall the polyline frame first.
Decurve
Removes extra vertices inserted by a fit or spline curve and straightens all
segments of the polyline. Retains tangent information assigned to the polyline
vertices for use in subsequent fit curve requests. If you edit a spline-fit polyline
with a command such as BREAK or TRIM, you cannot use the Decurve option.
Ltype Gen
Generates the linetype in a continuous pattern through the vertices of the
polyline. When turned off, this option generates the linetype starting and
ending with a dash at each vertex. Ltype Gen does not apply to polylines with
tapered segments.
Reverse
Reverses the order of vertices of the polyline. Use this option to reverse the
direction of objects that use linetypes with included text. For example,
