P&ID Electrical signal linetype

[dallabush]

Hi All,

Can anyone give me the definition for a linetype to add to the AutoCAD ISO Linetype Definition file for an electrical signal line for a P&ID?  This is not a simple dashed line but should look like the image below.  

I am using AutoCAD LT 2022.  Any help would be gratefully received.

You need to find a system font or buy a Shape File that has that icon in it, then you can copy a linetype definition that has a font letter in it and use your own https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-lt/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/Au... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXDkn9nINoQ

NOTE: there will be gabs between the shape and the line. Sorry, that's a limitation of linetypes.

OR you could try creating a custom DYNAMIC BLOCK shape that has that as a pline, you can create it to stretch etc. Ask for help creating such a block by posting a sample DWG of the line with the shapes here https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/dynamic-blocks-forum/bd-p/154

I will have a go with the dynamic block if not i will carry on doing what I am doing, and copy and paste the group when I need it.  Thought there might be a simple but elegant solution to this, the dynamic block might be it!!  Thanks for your response.
