add break tool is not available when I click on a rectangle

[wkshank]

Normally, if I create a simple rectangle and then right click it, the menu that appears will include a zigzag symbol that allows me to add a break in the polyline.  Or if I simply select the rectangle, a menu appears at the bottom also offering that symbol.  The symbol has disappeared, in both lists. I searched for that tool in the menu and don't see it.  

 

Help?

 

It appears and works fine if I click on a roof edge (add break option appears).

Hint oob the 3 key is the break tool.

[wkshank]

Yep - it's there (works fine) if I start a new plan.

 

rgardner I'm trying to decipher your hint.  ?

 

[wkshank]

Saved, closed, and re-opened the plan and it still is not there.

Out of Box (common acronym used on here) the #3 key is the keyboard shortcut for the break tool that you are looking for.

Did you maybe draw a box instead of a polyline?  Hint, if you select an object the program will tell you what type of object it is in the status bar.  A CAD Box might look a lot like a Standard Polyline but it can't be broken.

Both of you have my thanks... now I know oob, the 3 shortcut, AND that boxes look JUST like rectangle polylines, and cannot be broken.  Sheesh.
