Draw Lines
You can close a sequence of line segments so that the first and last segments
are joined.
You can assign properties to lines including color, linetype, and lineweight.

99).
You specify the locations that define the endpoints of each line with precision.
You can
Enter the coordinate values for an endpoint, using either absolute or relative
coordinates
Specify an object snap relative to an existing object. For example, you can
specify the center of a circle as one endpoint of the line
Turn grid snap on and snap to a location
There are other methods for creating precise lines. A highly efficient technique
is to offset a line from an existing line, and then trim or extend it to the desired
length.
Use polyline objects instead of line objects if you want the segments to be
connected as a single object.
