Creates a double line using straight line segments and arcs.
Access Method
The following prompts are displayed.
Start, Next Point
Specifies a start point, next point, or ending point of the double line.
Break
Determines whether a double line breaks when it intersects another double line, a single line, or an arc.
Caps
Specifies the placement of endcaps on a double line.
The specified ends are capped, whether or not they snap to an object.
- Both
-
Places endcaps on both the start point and endpoint of a double line.
- End
-
Places an endcap only on the endpoint of a double line.
- None
-
Places no endcaps on either the start point or the endpoint of a double line.
- Start
-
Places endcaps only on the start point of a double line.
- Auto
-
Breaks an arc or line, including another double line, at the intersection. Otherwise, places endcaps on both ends of the double line.
Dragline
Draws a double line by locating points centered on or offset from the double line. You can also draw along the left and right legs of the double line.
A negative value offsets the double line to the left of the located points, the rubber-band line. A positive number offsets the double line to the right of the located points.
Snap
Starts or ends a double line by snapping to an existing object. When the Snap option is on, the Break option determines whether to break the object at the intersection of the double line.
The Size option specifies the size of a search area, in pixels. The double line starts or terminates by snapping to the object it finds within the search area and adjusts each of its legs to form a clean junction with the object. Selecting the Size option displays the following prompt:
Width
Sets the width of a double line. The width is the perpendicular distance from one leg of the double line to the other.
