Joining polys not working, no idea why.

Post by BraselC5048 » Mon Mar 31, 2014 4:24 pm

I've been trying to join some polygons, and despite following the instructions in this http://www.ptsim.com/forum/viewtopic.ph ... 2278#p7671 post, neither polys nor lines will join. AutoLinePolyJoin, DisplayJoin, DirJoin, and NameJoin have all been set to true, and name join on it's own and in combination (with AutoLinePolyJoin set to true), and even in a test project, nothing would join. Any idea why, and what to do about it?

Hello,

Set the INI and then

in a new and empty project

draw a line. Then draw another line

Then pick the second line with the mouse and move it with the mouse so that

the 1st point of this lines passes over the last point of the 1st line. The lines will join.

Regards, Luis

I finally figured it out. Apparently they have to share a side, not overlap, and you have to select the first one you have to join, then click on the other one. It was the last two that tripped me up. It's also possible to join over more then one side at once, apparently.
