Lines, curves, and outlines (borders) may be drawn as dashed lines. The dash pattern may consist of two repeating sequences. The primary portion of the sequence is called the dash. The second portion of the cycle may be thought of as the "dot" portion of a dash-dot sequence. The parameters that control the size of the dot portion are found on the Dashes Panel. To show this panel select "Dashes" from the Tools Menu which is on the Main Menu. In order to change the "Dot" of a graphic's dashed line it must be the selected graphic in the top window of EazyDraw. If no graphic is selected the Dot parameters on the panel represents the dot format that will be used when creating new graphics. Follow the Target Graphic(s) link for more information on this topic. The Dot parameters do not apply and are disabled unless Dash is checked. You first apply and specify the dash portion of the cycle then the dash parameters.
The Cap style has effect on the appearance of dashed lines. This parameters are also on the Styles Panel. The example to the right demonstrates a few possibilities for using dot-dash lines. |
