How to convert Polylines to Polygons?

Recommended Posts

This is my first semester using AutoCAD (architecture student here). On my file I have some polylines that are the streets. So, they look like rectangles and curves, etc. I am working also on a 3D Model, and what I have to do next is to extrude them. The problem is that those polylines are not polygons, and so, they are not solids when I extrude them. I tried to use the command BO but it says that the lines are not closed, and I checked with OSNAP and they are! Is there any way to convert those polylines into polygons?

Welcome to the forum. :)

 

 

This video would probably be helpful.

About half way through it describes PRESSPULL, though you should watch the whole thing.

You should try again, using the PRESSPULL command.

There are lots of good video tutorials here on the site, just select the TUTORIALS link.

Pedit>Join and set a fuzz factor of .01 or so.

 

It usually a good idea to down save drawings when posting, so those with older versions of AutoCAD can open them.

Click on a polyline, go to the properties pane (Ctrl+1), check closed.

 

Just because the end point and the start point of a polyline are the same doesn't mean that the polyline is closed, you need to set that in properties or select the closed option when creating the polyline.
