I do a lot of 3d work. So I need to make polylines from lines in
existing drawings. If I have lines creating a curved wall. I cant seem
to easily get the end points to connect so I can join them into a
polyline. I have seen this before but this one drawing I am currently
using is very problematic. They seem to be connected but apparently they
are not. All the lines are on a "0" Z plane.
Is there a setting for cennecting or "welding" endpoints that might be
set too high or too low that I am unaware of?

Try out my PEDIT3D from www.black-cad.de
(with fuzz factor)
Good luck

Are you tracing over existing lines? Running Polyline?
If you use the "C" command on the last segment, it will automatically join
the beginning of the first segment to created a closed profile.

I often use the Stretch command. Zoom in close to the two ends that should
be joined. Command 'Stretch'. Window over both ends. Shift/Select one of
the lines to remove it from the stretch. 'From Point' - end of line still
selected. 'To Point' - end of other line.
