View Full Version : Appearance at corner of dashed polyline

Is there a system variable to control the way the corner of closed polyline created with dashed lines appears? I have a simple rectancle that with solid lines the corners all touch but if I change to linetype to dashed or hidden the corners don't necessarily connect.
Any help please...
Thanks,
Greg

PE, select polyline. "LT" and switch between the "on" and "off" settings

The system variable is PLINEGEN. When set to 0, the line pattern stops at each vertex. When set to 1, the line pattern continues through the vertex.

Same solution, diferent technique.
In the properties box of the polly line the last option is "linetype generation" switch that from "disabled" to "enabled"
