Line display problem

[Richard Maheu]

In 8.5, the displayed line patterns are stretched out compared to 6.0. A line that's supposed to be dotted looks like a dashed line, and the other pattern lines are stretched out also. They look ok on the status line, but not on the main display. It's like there's some pattern expansion factor at work. How do I get rid of it!?

This sounds like your plot transformation commands in you environment file. Will check into tomorrow at work and give more definite answer. But the jest of it is there is a number that sets how long the lines (hidden, etc) are displayed (scaled).

I have been told from the reseller nearby me, that the dotted lines loks dashed because ME10 uses some pre-defined linetypes that comes with Windows 95/NT. I surely hope, that it will be better in the future versions of ME10, but I think CoCreate have missed the thumbs down sign! For users that have been using the UNIX-versions is it really awfull to look on those linetypes, and it is impossible to read text that appears as a part unless you make a close up zoom. Why is it not allowed the users to define their own linetypes? Kind Regards Poul S. Berthelsen Poul Johansen Maskiner, Denmark.

I told about this problem to a German reseller, he told me that's a Windows graphic problem (thank you mr. Gates). I hope strongly that this problem will be correct in rel 9.00. Greetings from Italy.
