Polygoning

The Polygonise function splits the selected arcs or solid circles into polylines, i.e., converts them into polygons. The corner points of the polygon lie on the former circle line. By specifying the peak-to-valley depth, you can determine the maximum distance between the polyline and the former circle line.

NOTICE

To convert regular polygons back into arcs or full circles, the Clean function or the Smooth function must be used. See also functions Clean and Smooth.
