buildmesomething Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 The dashed lines view fine in the sheet layers, but don't appear in the design layer. How do I view them? It's pretty hard to work in the design view without them... Thanks! Quote Link to comment
Ray Libby Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Could you post a sample file demonstrating this? Quote Link to comment
CipesDesign Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I'm pretty sure that this is affected by two things: the first and most important is the zoom level at which you are viewing. Often when zoomed out at ?50% or less the dashes get lost and look like an un-dashed line. Try zooming in closer and see if the dashes appear. The second thing to try is to check to see if you have the "Zoom Line Thickness" preference checked in VW's preferences/display. This might also be affecting the visibility of dashed lines. One other note: certain dash styles are notoriously hard to see at low zooms levels because they have very small gaps between the solid segments. You might have some success in editing your dash styles to make the gaps a bit wider (as long as that doesn't mess with your graphic sensibilities too much!). P PS: Still would be worthwhile to post a screenshot and/or file showing us what you're seeing (or not seeing). Quote Link to comment

10111986 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) I have the same question about the visibility of the dashed lines. Because the line is dashed when I zoom in to 100%, but becomes a continuous line when I zoom to a level on which I want to draw. Is there a possibility to have VW automatically correct and adjust the gaps and the line lenght of the dash according the zoomlevel? I mean the proportions of the dash stay the same, no matter how many percent the zoomlevel actually is. Edited October 17, 2012 by 10111986 Quote Link to comment
