Function Description:
This command is used to optimize 2D polylines and associated hatches in early versions. When a drawing is opened in a higher version, the hatch created in older version will not update automatically. If users changed the UCS after creating hatch, the information about rotated hatch might not be correctly updated. When using CONVERT command to update hatches, it is recommended that you use the Select option to check your result. In most cases, you do not need to update polylines by CONVERT command. By default, the PLINETYPE system variable will automatically update polyline when opening an older drawing. The polyline can be created by third-party in old format or contained in an older drawing that was inserted as a block and then exploded.
