How To Explode A Polyline Rectangle? I Can't Find The Command?

[zowie123]

Hi,

Isn't there a way to explode a polyline so all the lines become different segments?  I'm almost certain I've done this in chief before, but can't find the command.

 

Ultimately I want to chamfer the corners of a polyline rectange, I can't seem to do it while it's a polyline, maybe I'm missing something?

 

Thank you, zzzzz

Use the Edit Object Parts icon on the Toggle toolbar that is located to the right of the screen by default to sever the connection between lines.

 

There are edit tools that allow for Filleting and Chamfering lines.  Best just to read up on how to use those.

You do not need to explode the polyline to add a chamfer but you do need to set the chamfer distance first.  Just click on the chamfer tool a second time and set the value to something other than 0.
