Boundary Creation Dialog Box

BOUNDARY (Command) Find

List of Options

The following options are displayed.

Pick Points

Determines a boundary from existing objects that form an enclosed area around the specified point.

Island Detection

Controls whether the BOUNDARY command detects all internal closed boundaries, called islands, in addition to the objects enclosing the pick point.

Object Type

Controls the type of the new boundary object. BOUNDARY creates the boundary as a region or a polyline object.

Boundary Set

Defines the set of objects BOUNDARY analyzes when defining a boundary from a specified point.

Current Viewport

Defines the boundary set from everything in the current viewport extents. Selecting this option discards any current boundary set.

New

Prompts you to select the objects that define the boundary set. BOUNDARY includes only the objects that can be used to create a region or closed polyline when it constructs the new boundary set.
