Quote (SW Help File)

To convert an entity:

In an open sketch, click a model edge, loop, face, curve, external sketch contour, set of edges, or set of curves.

I'm curious. What would you expect to happen if you were not in edit sketch mode?

RE: convert entities

Thinking outside the Sketch Toolbar has happened to several of us I'm sure.
