If you select the freehand line you will see many blue points which are extremities of small lines making the freehand line. These small lines needs to be exploded (understand ungrouped) so that you can modify some of them.
I'll try to reformulate what Armin advised :
1/ Create a new layer (let's call it
freehand)
2/ Move the freehand line to layer
freehand to isolate this line from the rest of drawing -> Click on
Properties select the freehand line and
freehand layer.
3/ Click on
Explode then select the freehand line. It is now broken into several small lines.
4/ Do what you want to do and you can "group" these small lines into a Polyline with
Create ploylines from existing segment.
I also link to the user manual as it may help to find the icons:
