Lengthen

Select entity to list length

Reports the current length of an open entity. Reports:

Current length - reports the length in current units.

DYnamic

Changes the length interactively; prompts you:

Mode/<Select entity to change> - enter an option.

Select entity to change

Changes the length of the selected entity; prompts you:

New end point for line - drag the line longer or shorter.

Mode

Switches lengthening mode; returns to original prompt:

Edit length: DYnamic/Increment/Percent/Total/<Select entity to list length> - enter an option.

Increment

Changes the angle and length by a specified amount; prompts you:

Angle/<Enter length increment (0.0000)> - enter an option.

Enter length increment

Specifies the length by which to lengthen or shorten the entity:

Angle

Specifies the angle by which to lengthen the entity; prompts you:

Enter angle increment - enter an angle.

This option applies only to arcs.

Percent

Changes the length of entities by a percentage; prompts you:

Enter percent length <0.0000>  - enter a number.

This option lengthens or shortens to the percentage, not by the percentage.

For example, enter 25 (for 25%), and a 1"-long line is shorted to 0.25".

Enter 150%, and the 1" line becomes 1.5".

Total

Changes the length to the amount specified; prompts you:

Angle/<Enter total length (0.0000)> - enter an option.

Enter total length

Specifies the length to which to lengthen or shorten the entity.

For example, enter 2 and a 1"-long line is lengthened to 2".

Angle

Specifies the angle to which to size the entity; prompts you:

Enter angle increment - enter an angle.

This option applies only to arcs.

For example, enter 45 and a 180-degree arc is shortened to 45 degrees.
