To Create a Schematic Line From an AutoCAD Line, Arc, or Polyline

You can create a schematic line from an AutoCAD® line, arc, or polyline.

1. Draw an AutoCAD line, arc, or polyline.
2. Right-click the object to convert, and click Convert to Schematic Line.
3. Do one of the following:
   • Press Enter or enter n (no) to leave the layout geometry in the drawing.
   • Enter y (yes) to erase the layout geometry from the drawing.

   The software displays the Modify Schematic Lines dialog.

4. In the Modify Schematic Lines dialog, specify a System, Style, and Designation ID.

   You can also specify these properties on the command line. Enter sy (system), enter st (style), or enter i (designation ID).

   Tip: To assign the properties of an existing schematic line to the converted schematic line, enter m (match), select an existing schematic line, specify what properties to match, and then press Enter.
