current/default LIN File for loading linetypes

[Anonymous]

I have a co-worker who is having a problem with loading line-types. When he goes to load a linetype into a drawing, he has to click "file" and select the acad.lin file every time. On my machine it is already loaded. What setting are we missing?

I attached a picture for reference, but the "acad.lin" in the current file field does not show up and he has to manually select it each time. Obviously a hassle we are trying to fix.

Please help me get my co-worker sorted out.

Thanks,

Michael

Well, it was solved by someone else. Looks like it was a user support file issue?

Normally you have ever choose the file from where you want to import a linetypedefinition (command linetype).

Acad will preselect the acad.lin or acadiso.lin, depent from your current dwg setup.
Metric files acadiso.lin (and for hatches acadiso.pat, without a posibility of choose), british file setup will preselect acad.lin (and acad.pat without.. for hatches).
Measurement is the sysvar.

Measureinit for totally new drawings.

Note: you can not reload hatch patterns, new hatches are ever based on current measurement-value (acad or acadiso.pat).
