Lee Mac Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 When it comes to creating the layers, this might be handy: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=44768 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGAL Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 No disrespect to others but its seems the couple of answers above are totally complicating the isssue, just use excell to create the lines of a script file you just need to add columns and the correct commands pretty easy in excell to copy to multiple cells. Just export it out as plain txt but save as a SCR file and run script. A B C D E F G H layer N layer1 C layer1 1 LT DASH layer N layer2 C layer2 2 LT DASHED layer N layer3 C layer3 3 LT Continuous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if the linetype isn't in the drawing or the acad.lin/acadiso.lin (resides in custom .lin)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
