Solved: Re: Dots appear in linetype when adding a Y offset

lstrubleWYCZW · ‎10-26-2022

I am trying to modify a linetype for a tree row. It is basically a repeating series of arcs. I want the treerow edge to appear where the survey shots were taken, not extending farther out. I added a Y offset so that the outer edge of the arcs are on the survey points instead of the back side of the arc.

The linetype creates the below figure. It has a dot at the repeat location of each arc. I want to remove the extra dots and just have the arcs. If I remove the Y offset the dots disappear and do not seem to be a part of the line.

Below is my code

*TREELINE_L0.5, Tree Line left side HALF SIZE
A,0,-.065,[TREE,AECCLAND,s=.065,Y=-.065],-.065
*TREELINE_R0.5, Tree Line right side HALF SIZE
A,0,-.065,[TREE,AECCLAND,s=.065,Y=.065,r=180],-.065

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

This:

*TREELINE_L0.5, Tree Line left side HALF SIZE
A,0,-.065,[TREE,AECCLAND,s=.065,X=-0.065,Y=-.065],-.065

yields this:

I added an X offset to the linetype so that the top quadrant of the arc obscures the dot.
