Sep 12, 2017 If you are using AutoCAD 2013 or older, you could have problems with the objects. In order to join two objects, they have to be polylines (in the newer versions you can directly join polyline with line, arc, etc. To convert line or arc to polyline you just have to type in PE (PEDIT) and click on the object.

Additional editing operations are available for changing the shape and display of polyline objects. You can also join separate polylines.
You can modify polylines in several ways using PEDIT, the Properties palette, or grips including the following:
- Move, add, or delete individual vertices
- Set a uniform width for the entire polyline or control the width of each segment
- Create an approximation of a spline called a spline-fit polyline
- Display noncontinuous linetypes with or without a dash before and after each vertex
- Change the orientation of text in a linetype assigned to a polyline by reversing its direction
Join Polyline Segments
You can join a line, an arc, or another polyline to an open polyline if their ends connect or are close to each other.
If the ends are not coincident but are within a distance that you can set, called the fuzz distance, the ends are joined by either trimming them, extending them, or connecting them with a new segment.
Autocad Convert Polyline To Arc
Spline-fit polylines return to their original shape when joined. Polylines cannot be joined into a Y shape.
If the properties of several objects being joined into a polyline differ, the resulting polyline inherits the properties of the first object that you selected.
Modify a Segment Within a Polyline
You can modify a segment in a polyline using the MOVE, ROTATE, or SCALE commands. You select the single arc or line segment, also called a subobject, within a polyline by pressing Ctrl when you click it.
You can also use the Stretch, Move, Rotate, and Scale grip modes to modify the polyline segment. Properties of polyline segments such as color or linetype, cannot be modified individually, but you can use the Properties palette to modify the width of individual segments.
