Exploding a Polygon into Lines
Explode a polygon into a set of independent lines and arcs.
\expol
Indicate the polygon to be exploded.
The entity loses its polygon characteristics and adopts the characteristics of a line. Each segment is now an independent line entity.
The lines can be collected to form the polygon using the Constitute a polygon from a group of lines (\aspol) command.
NOTE This command is valid for the 2D polygons. Use the \explode command to explode the solids (see chapter 9 - Editing and Manipulation)
