    Default Instead of typing PEDIT just double-click a Polyline to edit it

    Heres one thats simple (I'm sure most of you already know it).
    Instead of typing PEDIT to edit a polyline, just double click it. The options will show on the command line as usual.

    Cool, and for those who want to convert a line to a polyline, and are typing PEDIT, just type PE....

    It works in Mechanicl 07 (I assume vanilla as well); I don't think I've modified my CUI to have this effect, I believe it to be OOTB

    Ok, Works in 2007, but not 2006 (or earlier I suppose).

    I can confirm this does not work for earlier version of AutoCAD. This must have something to do with the Double Click settings available in the CUI for 2007.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    2006 & 2007 ACAD require you to set "peditaccept" to 1 (I think) to make it work without asking if you want to make it a polyline every time.
    Give people a job worth doing, the tools to do it, recognition of a job well done & get out of the way.

    I was not referring to the "peditaccept" part of this working, only the "double-click" ability. But your statement is still true, with the exception of the "2006" part, since 2006 does not start the ._PEDIT command upon a double-click.

    Sorry guys, I forgot to state what version. I'm on ADT 2007. I guess it is a 2007 only thing.
