Topic: Converting Lines to Polylines en masse

[MarkO]

I have structural steel software that I use to generate a dxf file of structural steel framing plans. I bring this into A2005 and then do
my cleanup work and dimensioning.
I can with PEDIT convert the lines to polylines and work my through
the framing plan but is it it possible via lisp to select multiple & separate lines and do a convert to polyline en masse so that each individual line becomes an individual polyline?
 Currently i use a modified polyline lisp that i wrote and i just trace
over the existing lines laying polylines atop them and looping until i exit.

Any help is appreciated

Yes it's possible via lisp.  Also possible from the command line - "mpedit".

Thanks so much.

Youll also wnat to look at PEDITACCEPT.It will save from getting the annoying prompt.

Object selected is not a polyline
Do you want to turn it into one?

Applies to 2004 version and up.

I use PLJOIN it will turn all selected objects to plines, and join up the ones theat meet (or are with in the tolerance you set) Works quite well with site plans that get exploded.
Not quite sure this is what yo are looking for, but it might help.
