Polyline

Create, edit, and delete polyline annotations in DraftPDF.

Polyline annotations draw an open multi-segment path that can change direction across the page.

Create

  1. Select the Polyline tool from the annotation toolbar.
  2. Click to place each vertex.
  3. Double-click to finish the open path.

Edit

Select the annotation to open the right-side properties panel. The General section is shared across annotations and lets you review or change common metadata such as Author, Subject, Page, Rect, Print, Locked, Created, and Modified. The Metadata section shows the full annotation object and lets you copy it.

The Polyline panel includes Appearance controls for Stroke, Opacity, Stroke Width, and stroke style. It also includes Start and End line ending controls and a Geometry section that lists Rect plus every vertex so you can edit point positions directly.

Delete

  1. Select the annotation on the page.
  2. Click Delete at the bottom of the right-side properties panel.
  3. The annotation is removed from the current document immediately.
