I am fairly new to AutoCAD and am trying to save a BLOCK in a certain
way but can't seem to get the final result I want. I am working in
AutoCAD R14 (I know it's not the latest version, but that's all I
have). Anyhow, I have set up a series of connecting splines that make
up a client's company logo and am now trying to connect all of those
lines to form a single object. I know that I have to use the BLOCK
command to do so, however I'm not quite sure how to save the lines
that make up the logo so that when I save and reopen the DWG file in
question, the lines that will show will only be dotted lines which
make up a single BLOCK object.
Could someone please give me step by step instructions on how to do
so. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

Hi Phil!
Before you save the block, select all entities which belong to the block
and change the linetype of these objects to dotted or whatever (AFAIK in
the properties window).
I don't remember well, AuotCAD 14 is looong ago.
Best regards
