Hi Guys,
I'm trying to draw dashed grid lines on a floor plan. I can't see the dashes! they are just coming up as a solid line. I have changed the linetype scale factor from 1 to about 25 and it makes no difference! Very confused,
Any help would be much appreciated,
Cheers,
Keith.

Your LTSCALE setting also affects appearance. Generally should be about 1 if plotting from layourt mode with PSLTSCALE set to 1, or if plotting from MS use a LTSCALE equal to about plotting scale.
To see the dashes, try setting LTSCALE to much lower and higher values as well.

I know this seems obvious, but.....have you checked to make sure the lines have a linetype of bylayer or the specific linetype you want, and not set to continuous?

If you are in Model space be sure that SHADEMODE is set to 2D wireframe

Have experienced a similar problem recently.
To rectify, I reloaded the linetype using the Linetype Manager.
For info I use a global linetype scale of 25 with all lines drawn using a scale of 1.
