Compound objects like polylines (PLINE), dimensions (DIMSTYLE), hatches (HATCH ) or block references (BLOCK) can be converted into individual elements.
Explode Dimensions and Hatches
When a dimension or a hatch is exploded (XPLODE), the dimension or hatch object will replaced by individual objects like lines (LINE), text (TEXT), points (POINT)or 2D solids and all associativity will be lost.
Explode Polylines
When a polyline is exploded, the polyline object will replaced by lines.
Explode Block References
When a block with attributes is exploded, only the attribute definitions will be retained, the attribute values will be lost. Colors and linetypes of objects in exploded block references can change.
Explode External References
External references (XREF), which are drawing files linked (or attached) to another drawing , cannot be exploded.
