How to Divide a Polyline in AutoCAD
The AutoCAD application has, for years, been used to create three-dimensional (3-D) models of planned structures, from buildings and houses to machine parts. AutoCAD has two ways of creating and showing lines, polylines and bezier curves. Polylines are smooth lines that can be used to create straight lines, arched curves and circles. There are many times when working with a polyline that you will want to divide it to create a gap. AutoCAD makes this easy.
