How would I specify how long of a break I want, how long of a gap? Using AutoCAD for Mac 2015.

Nevermind it's not working the way I wanted. When I make the break size number bigger the actual break is smaller, and same goes for when I make the number smaller. It's like it's acting on a percentage of the line length but I want the break size to be a set length no matter how long a line is. How would I do this?

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi,

BREAK command doesn't have such option. You need to use additional "construction lines" in order to be able to set the exact break gap.
