Joins the origin points of Items together into a LineString Item. No input values required.

Joins the origin points of Items together into one or more LineString Items.

Properties

Copy attributes

The source of any attributes to copy to the created item(s), or None to ignore attributes, possible values are First Item or Last item.

Example: First Item

Create 'chunks'

Should batches of points be converted into LineString Items (instead of a single LineString that joins all of the points)? True or False.

Example: True

Selecting True will make the Number of points per 'chunk' become active. Enter the number of points to be included in each 'chunk'.
