We recently worked on AutoLISP macro for converting simple polyline into “zebra” style line. It is simple and useful – select existing polyline, determine linewidth and stripe lengh … and done!
After using PEDIT or grip editing two polylines on both sides of ZEBRA line can be re-generated at any time using same command.
Screenshots below can provide visual idea on how the macro works.
1 – Simple polyline before ZEBRA conversion
2 – … and after ZEBRA conversion
3 – ZEBRA line core modified using grips with boundaries remaining at old positions
4 – Repeated command re-generates boundaries with changing stripe length and linewidth
