Intersections of adjacent wide segments are usually beveled. However,
nontangent arc segments, acute angles, or segments that use a dash-dot
linetype are not beveled.
Create Polylines from the Boundaries of Objects
You can create a polyline from the boundaries of objects that form a closed
area with BOUNDARY. A polyline created using this method is a separate
object, distinct from the objects used to create it.
To expedite the boundary selection process in large or complex drawings, you
can specify a group of boundary candidates, called a boundary set. You create
this set by selecting the objects you want to use define the boundary.

Draw Rectangles and Polygons
You can create rectangles and regular polygons quickly. Creating polygons is
a simple way to draw equilateral triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, and
so on.
If necessary, you can use EXPLODE to convert the resulting polyline object
into lines.
Draw Rectangles
Use RECTANG to create closed polylines in a rectangular shape.
