How and where do you want to draw lines? Just as a display for the user or does it has any measurement? Please explain your scenario.

The lines does not have any measurements .But all the horizontal lines should of same length. 

The drawn lines will be saved as an image.

lines willl be drawn in groups by leaving some space between each groups ( the size of each group that is no.of lines in each group will be defined by the user)

This will be saved as an image. The lines will be drawn in a blank image.

Attached is an example for you to start with. You can export that image thorugh code and also manually.

 

Since I am facing some problem I have changed the extension from .vi to .png, please change it back and use it.

Use the 2D picture control.  On the palette under Graphics and Sound >> Picture Functions there are several functions for drawing.  There are also many examples under Help >> Example Finder on how to draw on the picture control.

I have tried that But I am able to define the end point only.
In short the lines are starting from the same point. so I can't draw my lines like this

You move to the desired starting point of the line using "move pen" then draw the line using "draw line".

repeat for each line. (e.g. using a FOR loop and autoindexing over the positions).
