Note: You will also receive this message if there is not a hard return, or, placed at the end of the file that you have created. Unless the text style used in the linetype has been defined in the current drawing, the following error message (or similar) is displayed when you try to load the line:īad definition of (linetype name) at line (line#) of file c:\Acltwin\filename.lin
If you try to create the linetype within the program, the following error message is displayed:īefore you create a linetype with text in it, define the text style that you will use.
Note: Use a text editor such as Notepad to create the complex linetype. You must use the REGEN command to see the changes. No other text style settings will apply, unless multiline text is placed in the drawing using the same text style defined in the complex linetype. The text height setting will affect the linetype if it is set to a specific height other than zero (0). Before you create complex linetypes using text, consider how the font settings, scaling, and colors will affect the linetype. Complex linetypes are custom linetypes that can contain embedded shapes or text.
