    How to stop Home Designer auto-connecting CAD lines

    Is there any setting where I can stop Home Designer from automatically joining together CAD lines ? I'm drawing using CAD lines over a camera view and when I draw one line close to another it automatically connects the two - even though they are a different angles and have different line styles. It then updates the line style on the line I just drew to match the existing. Very frustrating. I've tried turning off Object Snaps but that hasn't helped.

    Thanks
    Mick

    Kat nailed the answer, if your software has that setting, that is what you need and want.
