Hi.
Using AutoCADLT 2025.
Problem:
- When drawing both 'polyline' and 'line' using Hidden/Centerline/Dashed linetypes, a gap starts to form between the final dash and the end vertex of the line as the line lengthens.
Info:
(in the following 'line' refers to both polyline on line)
- The gap between the last dash and the end point vertex of the line remains even it is drawn as a single polyline/line.
- This means that some corners have gaps.
- This issue occurs with PLINEGEN variable set to both 1 & 0.
- This issue occurs when manually enabling/disabling 'line type generation' in properties once the polyline is selected.
- Filleting/joining these lines does not solve the problem.
- Exploding and then filleting/joining these lines does not solve the problem.
- The gap only occurs on the end point of the line. Not the start point.
- When stretching the line, whether using start point or end point to stretch, the gap on the end point grows.
- This issue does not occur on other work computers using the exact same layer, linetype, linetype scale and same dwg.
I have attached a .png to demonstrate the issue.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

have you installed the latest 2025.1 LT update?
Hi Paul.
Yes I have the most recent update installed.
Unfortunately the problem persists.
On this particular computer does the same problem occur in a new drawing?
What if you create a new Windows profile with local admin rights and then sign in using that new profile?
Worse case would be to do a Reset
in case it's a graphics card issue, try disabling Gfxdx12 by setting that to 0 and then restart LT.
Update:
It seems the issue may be caused by a variable on my computer.
The issue transfers to another computer when a .dwg I created is opened on the other computer.
I have tried resetting AutoCAD. It didn't fix the problem.
I tried all else to no avail... then changing the 'Gfxdx12' variable to '0' sorted the issue.
Thank you very much mate.
Greatly appreciated.
Glad to have helped…cheers!!!
