Boundary command makes 2d polylines

    I am puzzled. Just fooling around I created a rectangle, an LWpolyline. I
    then used the boundary command on that and it, of course, created a copy but
    this time to a 2d Polyline.

    Is it just me using 2005? Is there some setvar that controls that behavior?

    Right. BOUNDARY creates either 2D polylines or regions, depending
    on what kind of object defines the boundary. If a boundary's defining
    entities includes objects that cannot be represented by polylines
    (such as splines or ellipses), then the resulting boundary is a region
    Otherwise, it's a 2D polyline.

    Hmmm ... thanks for that enlightenment.
