How to easily draw double lines or arcs in AutoCAD using an AutoCAD Lisp

How to easily draw double lines or arcs in AutoCAD?

Drawing double lines or arcs in AutoCAD can be a time-consuming task, particularly when adjusting their width, offset, and alignment.

Introduction to AutoCAD.

Drawing double lines or arcs in AutoCAD can be a complex task, but fortunately, there is a simple solution. By using an AutoCAD LISP routine, you can automate this process and save yourself time and effort. A LISP routine is essentially a set of commands that can perform a complex operation within AutoCAD. In this blog post, I will guide you through using a LISP routine to draw double lines or arcs in AutoCAD with ease.

What is the AutoCAD LISP and how do you upload it to AutoCAD?

After you have uploaded the LISP file, you need to type 'DL' to activate it.

then specify the start point.

Then specify each point one by one.

You can download the lisp from here.

Conclusion:

With the help of the LISP routine, creating double lines or arcs in AutoCAD becomes faster and easier compared to using standard commands. Additionally, adjusting the properties of the double line segments, such as their width, offset, and alignment is made possible. The LISP routine also provides a dialog box that displays the length and area of the double line segments.

I hope this LISP routine is helpful for your AutoCAD projects. Please feel free to leave feedback or questions below or contact me at. Thank you for reading and happy drawing!
