Converting a Complex Chain to a Single Element
By ControlAltDelete - www.penbrush.com

Is there a way to convert a complex chain to a single element?

If the complex element does not contain any arcs, then convert it to a shape using the Modify Element tool. Ensure that the Smartline Modification Settings are set to "Minimize number of linear elements" then snap the same vertex twice and then reset so the element is not altered in appearance.
