4.10 How to Create a Polyline
Polylines are a combination of several straight lines. Each straight line is referred to
as a “Vertex”.
1. Tap the location you want to start a polyline from. The pop up menu appears.
2. Select [New Polyline]. A point appears at the selected location.
3. Tap the location for the next point in the polyline. A line appears between the first
point and this point, making the first vertex of the polyline.
4. Repeat step 3 as necessary to complete the polyline.
5. Tap [Save] to save the new polyline.
The polyline is saved in the [Polylines] list, under the [List] menu.
