Not sure how to make this one line...

Okay, this is my first posting on this website, and I'm sure there will be many more in the near future, as I'm rather behind in my autocad homework. For, this test I'm about to start there's a line, that I don't remember going over. I don't know what its called, and I can't seem to find it in my book. Here is the picture I edited in mspaint to point out the specific lines.

What's the name of the command? And how does it work?

Okay, the last uploading service I used didn't work, so let's try this again.

Try the break line symbol. In earlier versions of AutoCAD it was an Express tool.

Welcom in the forum!

Thanks. The versions of AutoCAD I have are 2006, 2009, an 2010. Do you happen to know the command for that tool? If not, do you know where I can point and click to find it? I tried searching for "line break" in the help index, but it came to no avail. Can someone help me? I suppose I'll keep fiddling through the menus till I find it, but the test is due by midnight tonight.

Try the Breakline command.

Is BREAKLINE available in AutoCAD 14? Give the command a try!

Profile says AutoCAD 14. Post reads '06, '09 and 2010?

Works for me, '05 and/or '07.

The command breakline doesn't work in 2009LT, but I'd just draw the thing. Takes about 2 seconds, no?

Try the Breakline command.

When I try that in AutoCAD 2006 it doesn't work, I receive the following error:

Command: breakline

Unknown command "BREAKLINE". Press F1 for help.

However; it works fine in my 2009.

AutoCAD 14 was the first version I used. My high-school was rather low-budget as that was in 2002.

Thanks everyone, I should be able to complete my assignment, now.

In AutoCAD 2006 do you have the Express tools installed?

In AutoCAD 2006 do you have the Express tools installed?

Just curious, are Express Tools available other than from the AutoCAD installation CD's?

Tankman,

This came up on one another post I was involved with. I've been meaning to search it myself, but just haven't.

Eldon gave a comment here about where he thought you might still find express tools.
