Is there anyway to have a slot and rounded rectangle explode from smart polygon to arcs and lines instead of all lines? Its much easier to move and use smart polygons because they keep their control points like center and edge unlike single line slots, but when you explode the arcs go to lines which is a mess for dimensioning etc.

agree strongly - why would it do this by default ?

Yup, I agree about exploding polycurves into their respectful parts and not just lines......much more useful

On another note I would like to see VC create surfaces from polycurves even if it prompted the user to explode first:)

Keep up the great work!
