The two point segment is one of the base primitives and is often used for drawing. Segments can be drawn separately and as a set of several segments, merged into zigzag lines. Each segment closed or unclosed line is a separate segment, which is edited separately.

Command options:

Undo

Deletes the last created segment of a created set of segments in an inverse order.

Close

Creates the segment, connecting the last point of the last segment with the start point of the first segment. This option is available after the creation of the second segment.
