I want to change the line type for an command permanently. I didn't found an option for this. How is it possible to change it, for example for the centre line?

thanks

    You can't change the linetype for drawing commands.

    It is possible to set your global linetype using CELTYPE

    https://help.bricsys.com/en-us/document/system-variable-reference/c/celtype-system-variable

    Every entity drawn after setting will take on that linetype.

    You could try using the Tool Palette. This allows you to set the properties of commands

    If your drawing an object on a layer or want a linetype then as suggested you can make little lisp defuns that are loaded on startup.

    eg

    (defun c:dash1 ( / )(setvar 'celtype "Dashed")(command "Line"))

    (defun c:dash2 ( / )(setvar 'celtype "DashedX2")(command "Line"))

    Could use names like Line1 line2.
