[PEDA] Schematic - Dashed Lines.

2008-01-07 Thread Brad Kosiance
The schematic line tool displays dashed (and dotted) lines with the line
width of smallest no matter what it is set to.

If you change the line back to solid then the line width gets set to the
correct value.

 

Is this a known bug?

Protel99SE SP6.

 

 

Tx Brad.

Re: [PEDA] Schematic - Dashed Lines.

Hi Brad,

This is an old issue that is well known.  It's not really a bug, but 
a result of how the dotted and dashed lines were produced.  In 
Protel99SE graphical lines were drawn using the Windows Graphics 
Device Interface (GDI), and the Windows GDI does not support the 
width property.  The bug was allowing a menu choice that didn't work.

You can manually create dashed lines of any width by drawing a short 
solid line with the desired width, then use copy and paste, or paste 
it multiple times using Paste Array.
