Parameter descriptions

Input: Input polygon layer

Specifies the input segment containing the polygon vectors from which the line layer will be created. The input vector layer can either be whole polygons or topological polygons.

Output: Output line layer

Specifies the output file to receive the lines.

Use current selection (Focus only)

Allows you to restrict processing to only the selected shapes from the current view in CATALYST Professional Focus. The default value is FALSE so all shapes are processed.

Note: This parameter is available only through the Focus Algorithm Librarian.
