Barbed Wire Linetype?

    I am looking for a linetype that looks like barbed wire.
    I do not want a linetype with "X's", I would prefer some sort of slashes
    that would look like the barbs.
    I have searched the discussion lists, Cadalyst, and Googled.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

  2. My best guess would be to use a comma or a apostrophe in place of the 'x'.
    You would have to play around with the x and y offset values to get it to
    look just right, but I bet it can be done without much trouble. We use the
    'x' here, might have to play with that myself too in my 'free' time.

  6. Hi Earl,

    If you look in customer files you should find a reference to AC_CPLEX
    This file contains dozens of useful linetypes including barbed wire and
    related fence types.

    Hi

    Thanks for this, but it is it missing the "TRACK1" shapefile?
