How to get the length of the dash lines.

[maarten.]

Hi all,

With SetDashStyleN('My Dash Style', True,num,pair1DX,pair1DY,pair2DX,pair2DY,pair3DX,...); you can create a dash style. But I need it the other way around, I need to know how long pair1DX,pair1DY,pair2DX,pair2DY,pair3DX,... is of an existing dash style.

Anybody an idea how this is possible with VS?

Please tell us why do you need to know the pair lengths?

If your searching for a line style then maybe the following will help:

GetDashStyle or GetDashStyleIndex

I need to have a dashed line in 3D, so by drawing each part of the dash as a 3D poly that becomes possible.

But at the moment, the user can choose its own dash style in my tool and therefore i need to know the length of the pairs so i can redraw it as seperate 3D polys.

But i'm afraid it isn't possible, i saw yesterday that this has also been asked in the mailinglist without an answer... To bad.

If anybody has an idea, you're free to let me know .

Does anybody know if this is possible in C++?

And thanks for the answer WhoCanDo .

How about the repetitive unit tool? Ik hoop dat dat is wat je zoekt

Bedankt .

Drawing a dashed line in 3D isn't really the problem, I just need to know the length of the pairs of the dash style. And as far as I know, that's not possible with the repetitive unit tool, or am I mistaken?
