Dashed line, not dashed. How to scale?

[igones]

Hi everyone,

 

Look at the picture. How can I scale the line to show the dashes?

 

If a draw a bigger rectangle the dashes shows up... Is it possible to set a measure for each space?

 

What can I do?

 

I'm drawing in Meters 1 = 1m.

Adjust LTSCALE to suit.

 

Are you using linetypes from acadiso.lin?

[igones]

Yep. acadiso.lin

 

I'll try it now. Thanks!

 

Is it possible for me to create a linetype? Example: . - . - . and set the distance between dot and dash?

 

Thanks!

 

Edit - LTscale is what i was looking for!! =)))

Yes, Plenty on CADTutor for creating custom linetypes.

I usually use the acad.lin linetypes although I draw in metre units.

Those line types were written with simple scaling for the dashes and spaces, and are much easier to predict for scaling.

Thanks Remark. I didn't know about that!

You're entirely welcomed.

If you don't want to change the line type scale for every line, you can click on the desired line you want to change, type in "PR" or "PROPERTIES" or right click --> properties, find the line type scale and play around the with numbers there. Hope that helps.
