Synopsis

PDX_MSGT dxcr_Line(long option, MDA_PTR orig_db_ptr, MTH_3DPNT start, MTH_3DPNT end, double normal[3], double thickness, int dxf_model, MDA_PTR *dxf_db_ptr)

Purpose

Creates a DXF line.

Description

Creates a DXF line entity in the specified model based on data provided. The data provided must result in a valid definition.

The orig_db_ptr argument should contain the database pointer of the entity that the new entity was created from (usually this should be obtained by the calling routine via mda_GetOrigDbptr) or MDA_NULL_PTR. See the mda_intro man page for more information about predecessor entities. If thickness is nonzero, the extruded form of the line will be created.
