Solid Edge 2D - creating a Polyline / Boundary

Solid Edge 2D - creating a Polyline / Boundary

Solid Edge 2D - creating a Polyline / Boundary

(OP)
Hello - can anyone offer advice, I'm trying to polyline a 2D sketch. In AutoCAD I would use modify object/polyline or failing that the draw Boundary command.
I can't seem to find a silmilar command in SE, connect points doesn't seem to do the job?

Any help appreciated.

RE: Solid Edge 2D - creating a Polyline / Boundary

jkwango,

What specifically are you trying to do?  There is no polyline command in SE.  Make sure you have Tools-Maintain Relationships turned on before you try to connect points.  Depending on what you are doing I would think a combination of connected endpoints and grouping would suffice.

Thanks very much for the advice - I'm cutting electrical circuits from copper foil. If I don't polyline the artwork, the cutter i'm using reciprocates and doesn't give a clean cut.

I tried again but could only connect seperate lines rather than make a series of connected lines into one line.
