Just downloaded the trail version of LT 2021.

 

Just having a play before I use in anger 😎

 

Trying to draw double lines. Help suggests I should be able to but can't find it anywhere.

Use command: DLINE

to create two (separate) parallel Lines

 

Or create one Line (often better:  one Polyline) and use command: OFFSET to create the parallel seceond one.

 

 

MLINE is very special, i prefer to not use mlines for beginners (mline beginners)

 

 

For all Commands: Read the help [F1]

(Quicktip: Start the command and press [F1])

Toolbar (old school)? OR Ribbon? If you don't know, I suggest you just add it to the QAT https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-lt/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/Au...

Old School 😂 That's me to a tee. Trying to use this after a 15 year break from LT 🙄

 

Your right whats easier than typing dline but I'd like to add it to a toolbar too 😋

 

Cheers everyone. Impressed by the help. Much appreciated!

I abbreviated DLINE to D in the PGP file, another option to consider https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-lt/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/Au...
