View Full Version : Can't Dash or Hidden Linetypes

I am at a total loss. All of a sudden I can't make lines dash or go hidden. I'm working in model space. No matter what LTSCALE or CELTSCALE I use they just will not show dashed. They are loaded. I REGEN and REDRAW and I look on paper space... still not dashed or hidden.

I even copied a known hidden line from another drawing and IT shows solid.

This is the first time I've used this forum so I may not be doing things exactly right but I sure would appreciate someone helping me. Deadline is looming and I'm not doing real well.

Thanks. No, REALLY THANKS!

Hi

Can you please post an example drawing file that exhibits the behaviour you describe above, we can then take a look....

Check out the following thread, contains a few links that take you to different threads which deal with things like CeLtScale, LtScale, PsLtScale, Measurement, Measureinit etc -

Did you try it the opposite way? i mean that u paste ur original file into another one that shows linetypes correctly. use matchprop to match pasted one with the new one

To those who responded with suggestions, my thanks. I closed everything and did what has always seemed to me to be the smartest way to fix most problems. I shutdown and rebooted. By some magic, everything worked fine. I still don't know what happened but something went haywire and rebooting fixed it. So..... until it happens again, thanks again for your responses.

It could be the problem discussed in this thread.
