# 2.2.4.1 Convert flex-track(s) to Cornu(s)

This command will take a pre-selected set of flex-track elements (Straights, Curves, Joint or Bezier) and convert them into a set of Cornu Tracks. If there are no selected Tracks, the user can click on a single track.

The Cornu(s) will smoothly pass through all the end points of the selected tracks and smoothly join to the end-points (if any). This may change the internal shape of the resulting track(s) due to smoothing. A subsequent section 2.2.8 can be used to fine tune the Cornu(s) by moving, adding and deleting "pins" in the combined shape.

This command is intended to help conversion of track designs that were made before Cornu Track existed to Cornu.
