(Changed the 'Non-editable (topology) objects of types...' remark. This remark is not accurate. F.e. a line created with the Part_Primitives command cannot be joined but its point are parametric.) |

Description
The 
Draft Join tool attempts to join all selected Draft Lines and Draft Wires into a single wire.
Usage
- Select two or more lines or wires that you wish to join together.
- Press the
Draft Join button or press J then O keys.
If the open end of a wire in your selection coincides with the open end of another wire in your selection, they will be joined into a single wire. The properties of the first wire in your selection will remain and the rest of the objects will be deleted.
Options
There are no options for this tool. Either it works with the selected objects or not.
Notes
- To join objects that are not Draft Lines or Draft Wires you can try using
Draft Upgrade on them one or more times first. - The counterpart to this tool is the
Draft Split operation.
Scripting
