Determines whether AutoCAD LT creates a gap at the intersection of two double lines, or a double line with a line or arc.
Break Dline's at start and end points? OFF/<ON>: Enter an option or press ENTER
Specifies the type of endcaps of a double line.
Draw which endcaps? Both / End / None / Start / <Auto>: Enter an option or press ENTER
AutoCAD LT caps the specified ends whether or not they snap to an object.
Draws a double line by locating points centered on or offset from the double line. You can also draw along the left and right legs of the double line.
Set dragline position to the Left / Center / Right / <Offset from center=current>: Enter an option or press ENTER
A negative value offsets the double line to the left of the located points, the rubber band line. A positive number offsets the double line to the right of the located points.
This option locates the start of a double line at a specified distance and angle from a base point. First, you locate the base point, then a point to define the direction of the offset, and finally, the offset distance.
Offset from: Locate
a point
Offset toward: Locate
a point
Enter the offset distance: Enter
a distance value or locate a point
This option starts or ends a double line by snapping to an existing object. When Snap is on, the Break option determines whether to break the object at the intersection of the double line.
Set snap size or snap On / Off. Size / OFF / <ON>: Enter an option or press ENTER
The Size option specifies the size of a search area, in pixels. The double line starts or terminates by snapping to the object it finds within the search area and adjusts each of its legs to form a clean junction with the object.Selecting the Size option displays the following prompt:
New snap size (1-10) <current>: Enter a number from 1 through 10
This option removes, in reverse order, the points located for the current double line. A closed double line cannot be undone with this option. You can use the UNDO command to undo each segment individually.
This option sets the width of a double line. The width is the perpendicular distance from one leg of the double line to the other.
New DLINE width <current width>: Enter a width value or locate two points
