Keeping lines parallel

braicodavid — Mon, 12 Dec 2022 22:49:23 GMT

Hey, I am wondering if there's a way to make these line remain the same distance apart whenever stretching (I only have AutoCAD LT so I can't use constraints.

Is this possible?

What about asking someone (the forum) to create the block for you? In LT you can not create nor modify dynamic blocks including constraints, but you can use such blocks. (And to solve your current problem I think are constraints necessary).

@braicodavid You can grab a 30-day trial of full AutoCAD to build your desired library of dynblocks too as an alternative.

may be it's ok for you to use mline?

No MLINE creation option in LT versions of AutoCAD, but they can use your file if they like it enough.
