Shx files not listed in styles dialog
« on: December 14, 2005, 11:46:47 AM »
I have a few custom font files in shx format which our consultants use in there drawings.
Some of them show up in the styles dialog box pull down list and others do not.
Why is this and how do I get the one that do not show to show?

Any help would be appreciated.

Autocad 2006, Windows XP SP2.
Thanks

This is just a guess, but is it showing only the ones you have loaded?  I think you have to load them into the dwg before they're shown there.

If you are referring to the command STYLE, then that will read the support file search path folders and load the linetypes found inside those folders, then it would look into the fonts windows folder.

Just drop or create a folder with the custom linetypes and added to the support file search path folders of AutoCAD.

Command: OPTIONS
