Open Poly To Closed Poly

[johnny]

Is there anyway to have several line segments (all end points touching) to converge into a single poly in only a couple steps?  So far, the CA help seems to suggest the only way that is possible is to go back and snap the line end-points one at a time.

After you use edit object parts tools and do your editing... Select all poly lines and un-checked  edit object parts... select again all the poly lines and click extend objects button at the bottom and that should connect them all again...

Draw one. Drop a point at the center. Switch to copy/rotate about current point. Switch to multiple copy. Set interval and then use the rotate handle.

 

Or use the transform replicate dialog after dropping the center point, specify number of copies, rotation angle, and select rotate about current point.

There is an edit tool called "close polyline" that will join the start and end together.  Not sure if this is what you are looking for.

 

There is also a tool called "regular polygon" that lets you make a polyline with all sides the same.  I think this is much easier then Doug's method.

Johnny,

 

If I read what you want correctly...

Select all the line segments.

On the edit toolbar click Extend Objects.

Click anywhere in the plan.

Esc.

 

You should now have one continuous polyline.
