Polygon and polyline objects

Polygon and polyline objects are shapes with multiple vertices. Polygons are closed shapes with faces. Polylines are unclosed shapes with only lines.

Once placed, polygon and polyline objects can be reshaped by dragging their individual vertices. The appearance of polygon and polyline objects can also be changed from the Tools menu that appears when they are selected. Multiple polygon and polyline objects can also be selected and modified at once.
