To Associate a Multi-Line with Another Element

Make sure the Association icon in the Locks group or the Association Lock check box in the Locks dialog is turned on. (Drawing > Drawing Aids > Locks).

  1. Select the Place Multi-line tool.

    Vertices of the multi-line that are not associated with other elements can be placed in the normal way (as if placing a line string). When you are ready to place a vertex associated with another element, continue with step 3.

  3. Snap to a tentative point on the element to which the multi-line's vertex is to be associated.
  4. Enter a data point to accept placement of the vertex of the multi-line and its association with the other element.
  5. Continue placing vertices of the multi-line or Reset to complete the multi-line.
