Draw a polyline

Use the
PolyLine
 tool to draw a polyline or polygon.
TIP: You can also develop a custom NetLogic to create polylines programmatically. See Create a polyline with NetLogic.
  1. In
    Project view
    , double-click the container to include the object.
  2. In the editor toolbar, select PolyLine icon
    PolyLine
    .
  3. In the editor, position the crosshair where the polyline or polygon is to begin.
  4. Draw the shape:
    TIP: After drawing the shape, you cannot change polyline points but you can resize the entire shape.
    • Polyline
      . Select points on the screen. Press
      to finish drawing the shape.
    • Polygon
      . Select points on the screen and then select the initial point to close the polygon.
      TIP: To not connect the last line segment with the first line segment, hold
      when positioning the last line segment.
    The object appears in the editor and in
    Project view
    .
