Start Point

Specifies the next vertex of the multiline.

If you create a multiline with two or more segments, the prompt includes the Close option.

Next Point

Draws a multiline segment to the specified point using the current multiline style and continues to prompt for points.

Undo

Undoes the last vertex point on the multiline.

Close

Closes the multiline by joining the last segments with the first segments.

Justification

Determines how the multiline is drawn between the points you specify.

• Top
• Zero
• Bottom

Top

Draws the multiline below the cursor, so that the line with the most positive offset is at the specified points.

Zero

Draws the multiline with its origin centered at the cursor, so that the MLSTYLE Element Properties offset of 0.0 is at the specified points.

Bottom

Draws the multiline above the cursor, so that the line with the most negative offset is at the specified points.

Scale

Controls the overall width of the multiline. This scale does not affect linetype scale.

The scale factor is based on the width established in the multiline style definition. A scale factor of 2 produces a multiline twice as wide as the style definition. A negative scale factor flips the order of the offset line—the smallest on top when the multiline is drawn from left to right. A negative scale value also alters the scale by the absolute value. A scale factor of 0 collapses the multiline into a single line. For information about the multiline style definition, see MLSTYLE.

Style

Specifies a style to use for the multiline. See Draw Multiline Objects in the User's Guide, and see MLSTYLE.
