dashed and dotted lines not displaying correctly

[Anonymous]

I have 2 copies of the same drawing. In one drawing all my dashed and dotted lines are displaying perfectly. In the other drawing (which is simply a revised version of the first) all of my dashed and dotted lines from the previous drawing are displaying as solid lines, even though I havent changed anything and they still have all the same settings as the first drawing (ltscale etc). I've tried changing the ltscale across a range of values from .01 to 200, and then doing a regen, but nothing makes any difference. I'm completely baffled.

I'm using autocad lt for mac and have just downloaded the latest update. Could there be a glitch with that?

Hi,

look to system variables LTSCALE, MSLTSCALE, PSLTSCALE, CANNOSCALE and compare them for your two drawings.

Don't forget to run command _REGEN after changing any of the above variables.

Check into modelspace and paperspace plot scale

It's often easier to help out if you include the dwg files in question. Attach both files and then we can look into it and get you an answer faster.

Good luck,.
