Ken,
thanks for the report. The issue is really puzzling, because the line
specification code has not changed since previous R versions (which
work as expected) and I cannot reproduce it in any test applications
(i.e. if I take the current Quartz code and run it outside R it works
as expected). At any rate I'm continuing to investigate it and keep
you posted.
Thanks,
Simon

There was some discussion about slowdowns in the new quartz device a
few weeks ago that had to do with line drawing but I don't think
that the following has been mentioned.
I've noticed a "new" behavior in the quartz device that can be seen
by running
xx <- seq(1:100)
plot(xx, xx^2, type = "l", lty = 2)
On my display, the dash spacing disappears for xx < 40 for the
default window size.
In addition, the dashes are obliterated by increasing the line width,
lines(xx, 0.5 * xx^2, lty = 2, lwd = 2)
unless I enlarge the window. The same occurs for lty = 3.
The dash spacing seems to depend on the slope of the contour.
plot(rep(1, 100), lty = 2, type = "l", ylim = c(0, 100))
lines(xx, lty = 2)
lines(2 * xx, lty = 2)
This did not occur in an earlier version of R that I tried (R 2.2.0)
and does not occur in other graphic devices that I have tried (x11
and pdf, so far).

Does anyone else see this? Apologies in advance if this is normal
behavior. Thank you.
best,
