Add and Delete Multiline Vertices
You can add or delete any vertex in a multiline.
Edit Multiline Intersections
If you have two multilines in a drawing, you can control the way they inter-
sect. Multilines can intersect in a cross or a T shape, and the crosses or T
shapes can be closed, open, or merged.
Edit Multiline Styles
Multiline styles control the number of line elements in a multiline and the
color, linetype, lineweight, and offset from the multiline origin of each
element. You can change any of these properties. You can also modify the
display of joints, end caps, and background fill. A modified multiline style
retains the changes permanently.
You cannot edit the element and multiline properties of the
STANDARD multi-
line style or any multiline style being used in the drawing. If you try to edit
the options in either the Element Properties dialog box or the Multiline Prop-
erties dialog box, the options are unavailable. To edit an existing multiline
style, you must do so before you draw any multilines in that style.
If you use
MLSTYLE to create a multiline style without saving it, and then
select another style or create a new style, the first
MLSTYLE properties are lost.
To maintain the properties, save each multiline style to an MLN file before
creating a new one.
