Hello,

Dashed lines in many cases appear as solid lines in the Model or the Viewport (layout) or on the printout.

I am using (playing with...) the scale in the model. In the Viewport, I set the PSLTSCALE = 0 and I set the LTSCALE to 1 or 0.1 or anything reasonable to see these Dashed lines. I also ensured that the parameters "use paper space units for scaling" is not checked for any of the lines.

Anyway, after adjusting the Dashed lines, after some time, the Lines are displayed as Solid in the Model or in the Viewport and today I got a printout with Solid lines instead Dashed.

Can anyone advice, what parameteres should I set (in the model or in the Viewport) in order to get the desired dashed lines in the model and in the Viewport and the printout?


Thanks, Zionshea.

I found out that for Autocad 2008 there is a fix -
Recommed to install first the Service Pack 1 http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=10035892&linkID=9240618
then install the fix for the hidden/dashed lines display http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=10188849&linkID=9240618
