custom linetypes

[ndiamo4669]

I need to create a custom linetype one with

X

and

one with

0

It needs to be a constant line through the X and O. I created one but the lines are dashed like the ones in Autocad 2007.

Thanks

Something like this should work.

*TEMP,----0-----0-----0-----0-----
A,0.5,["0",standard,y=-0.5],0.5

Essentially, give it a dash, your character, then another dash. No spaces.
Adjust the dash lengths as needed.
Repeat with an "X".

here is what i have started with. can you tell me how to make the dashes solid lines and the lines go through the text?

*0LINE,0LINE ---0---0---0---0---0---0---
A,.5,-.2,["0",STANDARD,S=.1,R=0.0,X=-0.1,Y=-.05],-.25
*XLINE,XLINE ---X---X---X---X---X---X---
A,.5,-.2,["X",STANDARD,S=.1,R=0.0,X=-0.1,Y=-.05],-.25

I did, in my previous post above.

Just remove the -.2 part after the .5; that's the "pen up", or gap size.
