Hi stafford.cad

Please note I've *moved* this Topic (Thread) from the Forum feedback (http://forums.augi.com/forumdisplay.php?f=49) to this one as I believe it would be better served here.

Thanks, Mike

Hi

Are you referring to MultiLines (MLine) and using them with SnapAng?

If yes, you're out of luck. My bad, SnapAng with MultiLines does work, it helps if I actually turn on SnapMode instead of just setting SnapAng (you can tell I don't normally use SnapAng & SnapMode).

Instead take a look at using Polar Tracking in conduction with PolarAng.

Within the old Forums there was a good discussion on the use of MultiLines and their limitations; if I remember correctly there were a few very good Wish List Items made that would greatly improve their functionality + actually make them a useful Object Type within AutoCAD.

You might want to head over to the ACAD 2005 Wish List Forum (http://forums.augi.com/forumdisplay.php?f=57) and get the bal rolling again on MultiLines.

Personally, if Autodesk don't improve MultiLines drastically they might as well remove them from their product.

Have a good one, Mike
