Hi all,
I created a line type .25 x .25 perf. The line starts with a cut then a gap then cut, gap etc. I was wondering it was possible for the line to start and land on a gap, ex. Gap, cut, gap, cut, gap etc.
Thank you
Stylianos.

No, I think the first element always has to be a line, not a space.
Maybe an option to consider adding in the future.
Thanks again, I appreciate your feedback.

Here is the AutoCAD guide for creating linetypes:
https://help.autodesk.com/view/ACD/2022/ENU/?guid=GUID-EF1DF0A9-2088-487C-8085-16FEE6425405
If you read down, you will find this statement:
A-type alignment requires that the first dash length be 0 or greater (a pen-down segment). The second dash length should be less than 0 if you need a pen-up segment and more than 0 if you are creating a continuous linetype. You must have at least two dash specifications for A-type alignment.
I interpret that as saying that it must start with a line (dash). You can enter 0 but that produces a dot at the start.
