does anyone know how to lessen the number of segments(vertices) on a polyline?

need to export them for 3d wireframes. t.i.a

[hotlava777]

one way to do this

1-make sure all the lines are joined together 2- type (PEDIT),leftclick on one segment of the line, (prompts) "do u want to turn it to a polyline?" Y,click "join"

3- , select everything,{enter},done.

@stoob1969 It is weird how you have to remember to use Edit Polyline and remember to have everything touching, the join command should just have to be used and come up with the menu of options. Why make a simple command so difficult?

What a rigmorole of joining with edit polyline. Inventor is so much more easier and intuative.
