Spline through points - poly line

Britten
I feel so stupid asking this especially when I have 6 plus years working with a software, but I am attempting to convert a spline that was created through points into a polyline. I have attempted exploding it multiple times and it does not work. It does with a normal spline, but spline through points it does not. So is this an oversight on the development, is there something wrong, or am I overlooking something?

"Spline through points" is likely a misnomer.

It's actually a quadratic bezer through given points. It's not cubic spline, or nurbs.

The quadratic bezer allows implementing more features, like tangent, hatching.

Exploding the quadratic bezer is not currently supported. If you have any suggestions on exploding a quadratic bezer, it helps.

You can also try 2.2.2 alpha branch, the command is Spline -> Explode Spline To Lines

It works both with Spline and Spline Points and converts splines to polylines.

It is available there: https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/releases/tag/2.2.2_alpha-latest
