This tool allows you to convert certain types of entities into one or more simpler entities, for example exploding a dimension entity into the individual lines, arcs and text from which it is comprised.
Before activating the tool, select the entities to be exploded.
On starting the tool, the Explode form shows the possible options.
If the explode options chosen are appropriate to the selected entities, then any new entities are created using the palette of the original and the original entities are deleted.
