How can I convert polyline to line ?

Cmd+= on a Mac or possible ctrl+= on a PC will explode the poly line in to grouped lines and arcs. You can choose whether to keep the poly line too. You can also then convert the separate lines back to a poly line by using the consolidate line command.

Hi, You can explode the polyline (CTRL + =), that way you gonna end up with multiple grouped lines.

Just use the 'explode' tool.

 

You can also use the 'Consolidate Line' tool to explode polylines.
