CComer38 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I created several custom linetypes for the first time using the mkltype command. They seem to work fine in the drawing that I created them in. However when I tried to load the .lin file into another drawing to update my xref I keep getting a bad definition. It seems like CAD doesn't like the line that has the name (i.e. *NAME). I'm not sure how to get around this except for copying the line from the original drawing, which seems like a hack and I'd like to learn how to fix this. I loaded my .lin file for reference. Please help! Thanks, MD Linetypes.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldon Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 All your linetypes reference a text style "Styledgn001". If that text style is not already defined in the drawing, you will get such a warning when you try to load those linetypes. Copying a line into a drawing seems to bring the appropriate text style with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
