# To Contour

Converts the selected object to a polygon, or a group of polygons. If the conversion creates a group of polygons (for example, when you convert a text object), then press F3 to enter the group before you can select an individual polygon.

To access this command...

Choose \<emph\>Modify - Convert - To Contour\</emph\> (\<item type=\"productname\"\>LibreOffice\</item\> Draw only)

Open the context menu of a selected object and choose \<emph\>Convert - To Contour\</emph\>

Once you convert a line or a text object to a contour, you can no longer edit it as you normally would. Instead, you can edit the contour as you would any polygon, including using the \<emph\>Edit – Points \</emph\>command to adjust its shape.
