Command Overview

Turn a perimeter into an open string. If a string is closed then the last point is deleted - if the string is already open, the command has no effect.

You can preselect data before running this command; all preselected strings are closed without further prompts.

Running this command automatically cancels any other running command.

Note: Any string where the first and last point are coincident is considered to be closed.
