Remarks

Linetypes: Although you can create a linetype and add it to the Linetypes Collection object using the Add method, it will be created with the default properties only. Because you cannot edit linetype properties with this release of ActiveX Automation, use this method to load existing linetypes into your drawing.

Menu groups: AutoCAD searches for customization files with the specified MenuFileName and a .cui extension.
