    I created a linetype that inserts a shape file that is a slope symbol. The
    linetype works fine in the drawing it was created in. When you go to load
    the linetype through the traditional linetype manager it gives this error.
    (it is in a dialog box on the screen)

    Bad definition of SLOPE-L at line 2 of the file M:library\Symbol
    manager\linetypes\AE.lin



    If I use the AutoCAD design center to load the linetype from the drawing it
    presides in then it loads just fine. I would like to be able to load the
    linetype through the linetype manager. Any advice would be appreciated.

    *SLOPE-L,SLOPE LEFT
    A,.253246,-.123275,.253246,-.123275,.253246,-.123275,.253246,-.123275,.25324
    6,-.123275,[SLP-L,M:\LIBRARY\SYMBOL-MANAGER\SHAPES\AE,s=.025],.253246
    *SLOPE-R,SLOPE RIGHT
    A,.253246,[SLP-R,M:\LIBRARY\SYMBOL-MANAGER\SHAPES\AE,s=.025],-.123275,.25324
    6,-.123275,.253246,-.123275,.253246,-.123275,.253246,-.123275,.253246


    THESE ARE THE LINETYPES THAT IS IS HAVING TROUBLE WITH

    Are the linebreaks as shown in your .lin file, or did they occur as a result
    of posting with your newsreader? If the former, note that theres a linefeed
    between the last two digits of one of your "pen down" values in each
    definition.
