    It's quite useful for the code from Andrew.

    In case you have a label attach to the wire you want to edit.

    There is no problem for using dbConvertLineToPath(wireId 0.0625 "roundRound") to convert line to path.

    but from path to line, some code need to be added to keep the label, as:

    procedure(CCFconvertPathToLine(wireId)
      let((lineId)


        lineId = dbCreateLine(wireId~>cellView wireId~>lpp wireId~>points)

        ;move the label from path to line
        foreach(child setof(x wireId~>children and(x~>objType == "label"  x~>lpp == list("wire" "label")))
            schGlueLabel(child lineId)
         );foreach


        dbDeleteObject(wireId)
      )
    )
