Is there anyway to convert a spline line into a simple line or a polyline? Spline lines are extremely dificult to manage, and create a sort of problems that are easily solved if it is a polyline
 
thx

the "flatten" command from express tools can change spline into polyline .. ;)

thx a lot ;)  but sometimes it destroys or deletes some of the polylines. Is there a way to fix this ??

The flatten command is the only way I know of. There is an option not to delete lines, so this may solve the problem you were experiencing! Command:Flatten:remove hidden lines? <No>I don't tend to use splines, although they can be useful!

Export drawing to .DXF format and open the .DXF file .
This should give you the splines converted into lines

how can I export an Autocad file into .dxf?
 

Go to Cadalyst site, search spline in the "get the code" or hot tips area.  There are lisp routines for conversion. http://cadtips.cadalyst.com/node/tiplisting?keywords=spline

Please go to "FILE-----Save As-----File of types - Choose .DXF

I loaded the lisps that convert splines into polylines but when i write the comandline it tells me that it is an unknown command.
any help on this???

When i convert splines to polylines, sometimes, some of the transformed plolynes loose their previous form and turn into stright lines with a whole new form. is there anyway to fix this ??
