How Merging Converts Objects
When you merge objects using Merge or Layer Generation, most merged objects are converted to polygons. If you merge a group of polygons and paths, the resulting object is a polygon.
However, when you merge paths of the same width abutting each other, they merge into a single path. When you merge overlapping paths, they merge into a polygon or rectangle.
Overlapping or abutting rectangles of the same width adjoining end to end merge into rectangles.
When you merge objects, the resulting polygon should not have more than 4000 points (vertices).
When ROD objects are merged, the resulting shape is not a ROD object.
