shapes -> polyline

Is there a way to make a shape automatically into a polyline without selecting the segments and then “Polyline From Selection”. Or, is there a way to keep the segments of a shape selected so that I only have to do “Polyline From Selection”. The manual states that command RE draws “four lines (or a polyline)” but it seems that it is only drawing 4 lines by default and it does not keep them selected.

Yes, Polyline from Segments (OG).


Four lines or polyline depends on the setting in the option bar. Why should they then be selected?

Wow, somehow I just never noticed that checkbox. Thanks.
