From the basic line object, you can create polylines, polygons, multilines, and freehand sketches.
Polylines--A polyline is a connected sequence of line segments. Polyline applications including the following:
- Contour lines for topographic, isobaric, and other scientific applications
- Wiring diagrams and printed cicuit board layouts
- Process and piping diagrams
Polygons--You can create: - Equilateral triangles
- Squares
- Rectangles
- Pentagons, hexagons, octagons, and other figures.
.
Multilines--Multilines are composed of parallel lines called elements. When you draw a multiline, you can specify:
- A style to control the number of elements in the multiline and their properties.
- Positioning (justification) of the multiline on the left, center, or right of the cursor.
- Scale (width) of the multiline, using current units.
Freehand Sketches--Freehand sketches may comprise many line segments that are converted into lines, polylines, or splines. Use sketches to:
- Create irregular boundaries.
- Trace outlines from paper directly into a drawing using Tablet Mode.
