• Convert to layer: Select the line layer based on your requirements.
• Line length: Set the length of the converted line vector object based on your requirements.
• Up: The line vector object extends in the positive Z-direction from the selected point based on the set length.
• Down: The line vector object extends in the negative Z-direction from the selected point based on the set length.
• Both: The line vector object extends in both the positive and negative Z-directions from the selected point based on the set length.
• Delete Point objects: After converting to a line vector object, do you want to delete the point vector object.
• Select objects only: Select the point vector object that you want to convert based on your requirements.
