how to check if every entity/polyline on your drawing is closed? and strange behaviour of creating polylines

Hi all,

In the application for photolithography, I have learned that every polyline has to be "closed".
To create a polyline I use the "Create Polyline from Segments" button.

For the reason that I still don't understand,
I found a polyline that is not closed, even though it appears as a closed object (if you select the object you can only select it as a single object, not as separate lines).
I also found if I repeat the "Create Polyline from Segments" button on the same object, the status of closed is sometimes changing.
Is it supposed to be like that?

Currently, I use the button `properties` --> select object --> see if the "closed" is checked or not.
But this is troublesome since for each drawing I can have thousands of objects.

Is there any way to check the "closed" status for the whole drawing automatically?

By the way, I hope there will be LibreCAD 3 (or any update) in the future.

Thank you!
