Problem with lines style

Dawid Banaszczyk's Photo Dawid Banaszczyk 11 Jul 2012

Hi Everyone.

I can't change style of lines. I have in options only one position - continue (and By layer, By block). When I enter to Layer Manager, I choose line style on layer, and there is only continue style. When I choose it, there is sound of error and nothing happen... Do You know what is going on?

Best Regards.

Hello!

I think it's bug in default template. File with linetypes is placed in "c:\Users\All Users\Nanosoft\nanoCAD Eng 3.5\SHX\GOST 2.303-68.lin"
You can load it in LineType Manager and more linetypes will appears. We'll fix it in next build.

Attached is zipped file with linetype definition.

Hello, I was having the same problem. I downloaded the ZIP file above and loaded it into the LineStyles in NanoCAD. Now I can select the different line types, however, even after I select the different type, the line in question stays solid. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

I have replaced the file in archide but there is no linestyle at all there. How can I "load" the GOST 2.303-68.lin?
What should I do after replacement in C:\Users\All Users ... ?

Thank you!

1. What version do you use?
2. Have you unzipped archive? There should be .lin files, not .zip in c:\ProgramData\Nanosoft\nanoCAD x.x\SHX folder.
3. Make sure that you load linetypes correctly:
Click Load linetype, then select the desired .lin file:

Choose with ctrl several linetypes:

They appear in dialog (click OK) and in Inspector:

Note that linetypes are loaded for dwg file. If you need to use them always, change Default.dwt template or create your own. Read about templates in Help.

Hello everyone.

I can not change the format of the line. I have only one option position - continued (by layer and by block) when I entered into the Manager, I choose to look at the floor and only style remains. When I choose to no errors and nothing happens ... You know what happened?

Hello,
I have the same problem. I wanted to choose dashed line, but it did not apear in a line manager. So I did what you had suggested. I downloaded the attached line file, and loaded it to program. then I tried to choose the line type I wanted, but in the drawing it was still continious. No matter did I change the style of the line or draw a new one. I even tried to load Autocad.lin file, with autocad's lines - the same effect. Please help me. It's important.

@Eternet, you need to play with the scale of your lines. Non-continues linetypes look like continues, unless you give a proper scale, so that the dashes (for example) are smaller than the total length of your line and not too tiny to be visible by your eye
