Excellent presentation. But I have autocad LT I need a linetype with a continuous line with 5" diameter, filled circles every 50" Do you have one?

@professor_porkchop 9 ай бұрын

AutoCAD LT does not have the express tools, so you cannot use the makeshape tool or the makelinetype tool. I don't have the capability to share the shape files in the reply, but if you email me I can send it to you.

How do I make a shape that has a solid hatch?

@professor_porkchop 4 ай бұрын

You cannot include hatch patterns in shape files. The solid fill pattern in AutoCAD is a dummy pattern. To work around this issue you will need to get creative. Here is one solution: 1. Change the hatch pattern from SOLID to something like ANSI31. 2. Change the scale of the pattern so it is dense. The density you need will be determined by your application and the size of the shape. A small shape may need to have a scale like 0.05 3. Explode the hatch pattern so it is now composed of several lines. 4. Use the MKSHAPE command as before. Depending on your application, you may need to increase the resolution on the file. Hope this helps! Let me know! KR

Hi. I made linetype using shape. But when i send my drawing to someone, linetype dont work. Is it beacause of shape? Must be shape and drawing in same folder and then if someone open drawing from that file,will work? If i want to send linetype to someone, what to do that linetype will be shown as i made that? Thanks

Thanks for the question! You will need to send the linetype file (.lin) and the shape file (.shp) to the client. The client may save them on his computer (both files in the same location) before opening the drawing file. When the file is opened, the program will direct the user to specify the location of the linetype file, and everything should work out just right!
