staylor007 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I have been working in AutoCAD for years. Currently working with AutoCAD LT 2019. I cannot figure out why my linetypes and hatches are no longer displaying correctly. It is not and LTSCALE issue or PSLTSCALE issue. They were all displayed correctly in my drawings days ago and now all my hidden and phantom linetypes are reading as continuous. Im not sure if a setting has been changed by accident or if something is now corrupt. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to try and solve your conundrum, could you please clarify your last statement above as:- 1. I have gone to the layer manager and all linetypes have been changed to Continuous or 2. I have looked at the screen, and all linetypes appear to be continuous. If you have option 1. then you will have to re-assign your linetypes to their layers. If you have option 2. then have you tried to re-load all linetypes from the correct linetype file i.e. ACAD.LIN for imperial drawings or ACADISO.LIN for metric drawings? The scaling difference between the two is about 25 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staylor007 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 msltscale is set to 0. other linetypes are displaying properly. not sure why some are and some aren't. so frustrating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldon Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 You do not say whether you have tried re-loading the affected linetypes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

staylor007 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 I have tried reloading them, I believe, but I'm not sure exactly what your file you are referring to. thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldon Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Can you please post a drawing containing a sample line of each of your linetypes, annotated whether they are correct or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 The two linetype files are acad.lin for imperial based drawings and acadiso.lin for metric based drawings. Did you by any chance borrow some content from another drawing recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
