Description
With linetype you can select a specific type for a line which all the new lines will be.
Any future object in the drawing will be added with the new selected line type.
TIPS:Instead of changing line type any time you want a different line type, you can create different layers with the desirable line type.
Remarks
WireCAD uses penstyle property to define the linetype.
Default value is VdPenByLayer (PenStyle by Layer). When object is a Layer then the default value is VdPenSolid.
Penstyle is scaleable.The scale is set from the ActiveDocument.LineTypeScale property.
If the entity is part of a block and it's layer name is "0" and pen style is VdPenByLayer (by Layer) then, when the block is inserted, entity takes the pen style value of the inserted object. This can be done the same if you use for Penstyle the value VdPenByBlock (by block).
These are some examples of linetypes:
