I've just been informed that I can do the same thing by creating a polygon (open; closed behaves strangely thru this process), converting from the polygon to a repetitive object, selecting the x from the symbols, and then editing the size of the symbol and the pitch of the repetition to achieve the desired effect.
I would infinitely prefer to select a line with x's on from the line attributes palette, and adjust the repetition and size thru the dashed line editor if necessary.
If one could create a dashed line with x's on (perhaps multiple layers, like hatches, but in a dashed line? So, would be layer 1 dashed line, layer 2 leftpitched arm of x, layer 3 rightpitched arm of x...?), that could be quite spiffy also.
