difference between polygon and polyline

[My_Key]

Good morning.

I have a doubt: when I have to draw forms, for example, I have to recalculate from an imported jpeg in vw of pedestrian paths, should I use polygon or polylinear tool?
What difference does the two tools have?

the difference between the two objects basically lies in the possibilities of inheritance. If you stay on n two-dimensional design I recommend you keep polylines.

the polygon command serves to create regular polygons (triangle, square, pentagon etc): these are only closed polylines composed of line segments. to make sure it is enough that you create one and then you publish the properties: You'll see it tells you that the entity is a polyline.

polygon allows you to create open or closed figures composed of straight segments. polylinea also allows you to use curved segments controlled by spline, bézier, arc, etc. a polyline made of linear segments is identical to a polygon.
