<p>The 2.18 docs recommend it so it appears to be there by design. <a class="external" href="https://docs.qgis.org/2.18/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/editing_geometry_attributes.html#cutting-copying-and-pasting-features">https://docs.qgis.org/2.18/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/editing_geometry_attributes.html#cutting-copying-and-pasting-features</a></p>
<p>-=-=<br />Transform polygon into line and vice-versa using copy/paste</p>
<p>Copy a line feature and paste it in a polygon layer: QGIS pastes in the target layer a polygon whose boundary corresponds to the closed geometry of the line feature. This is a quick way to generate different geometries of the same data.<br />-=-=</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21213: Pasting linestring into polygon layer does not produce polygonhttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/21213?journal_id=1000232019-02-12T20:52:40ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com

<p>ok cool, is not the first or the last qgis feature I didn't knew it existed. But anyway we should ask if this was <strong>removed</strong> by design in QGIS3 (as the digitizing code changes quite a lot).</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21213: Pasting linestring into polygon layer does not produce polygonhttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/21213?journal_id=1000252019-02-12T21:05:40ZCory Albrecht

<p>I hope it wasn't removed by design as I rely on it. I frequently have need to copy dozens of islands from coastline data which is linestrings to be able to paste into the polygon layer and merge with the mainland feature that I drew.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21213: Pasting linestring into polygon layer does not produce polygonhttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/21213?journal_id=1001402019-02-13T21:54:29ZNyall Dawson

<p>Works in 3.6.0, haven't tried 3.4.5 or 3.7 yet.</p>
