Predefined Line Types

[mozman]

When you create a new DXF document using ezdxf, no line types are set up by default. To set up some predefined line types, add the setup=True or setup=["linetypes"] argument:

import ezdxf

doc = ezdxf.new(setup=["linetypes"])
msp = doc.modelspace()

This will create the following predefined line types:

The name of the line type is the name shown above. As with all table entries, the name is not case sensitive.

msp.add_line((0, 0), (100, 0), dxfattribs={"linetype": "dashdot2"})
