Start and End Blocks
These blocks appear only at the start and end of lines, and can be different
Blocks On Vertices
If a block is first in the linetype definition and the Alignment is either Constant or Segment, a block will be placed on every vertice
Blocks Only On Vertices
If a block is first in the linetype definition and the dash spacing is large enough, blocks will only appear on the vertices
Blocks Can Have Wipeouts
If you want to make sure that overlapping linetypes don't intersect, include wipeouts in blocks. These objects use reference linetypes with wipeouts in the base linetype.
Blocks Can Have Fill
Blocks can include hatches, traces, or wide polylines.
Blocks Can Be On Different Layers
Components of blocks can be on a different layer than the line. A block could have different layers for different zoom levels.
Blocks Can Have Different Color and Lineweight
Components of blocks have a different color or lineweight than the linetype
Blocks Can Have Different X and Y Scale
A single block definition can be used in multiple situations by varying the X and Y scale
CAD Linetypes Can Be Used Within Blocks
Freely combine regular CAD linetypes within AutoLINE linetypes
AutoLINE Linetypes Can Be Used Within Blocks
For even greater flexibility you can use AutoLINE linetypes within blocks within AutoLINE linetypes
Redefine Blocks At Will
Don't like the way it looks? Redefine the block, REGEN, and the linetype immediately appears different.
Linetype Parameters Can Be Overriden
Do you need a linetype to appear slightly differently just one time? Modify the linetype, convert the object, then modify it back. The linetype won't change even after REGEN. This can be helpful if you need an object within the line to move.
