Why is Continuous Line Shoing Up as Hidden

Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid I've been drawing in CAD since forever and my line (when drawing one) always shows up solid.
But NOW it's showing up dashed .....
Is there a setting to change this?

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid make sure the line is continuous & not dashed, hidden, dots, etc.

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid oh it's definitely continuous ...

the way it shows up is more like when you click and drag to the upper left. that type of dashed style. it's not really a line .....

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid you lost me on that......... Originally Posted by Rico the way it shows up is more like when you click and drag to the upper left. that type of dashed style. it's not really a line .....
is there a thickness to the line? is it plotting correctly? did your grid accidentally get turned on?

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid let me try to re-explain ... Originally Posted by wrestlemom you lost me on that.........

But when I draw a line now, I get this dashed thing that isn't a line ... it's more like a ghostly representation of a line ...
it seems to me like a line display setting. Nothing to do with layers, linetypes or anything like that. Seems to me like I changed a system variable acidentally .......

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid Is this in a custom lisp routine? The only thng I can think of off the top of my head that would change it would be using bit 32 for initget. Unless it is a driver issue. Originally Posted by Rico let me try to re-explain ...

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid Is this the "rubber band" line between the last point picked and the next point to be picked?
AFAIK, changes to this would be a display driver thing.

What version are you working in? What is your LTSCALE variable set to? if in 2006-7 are you using the DYNamic drawing features? What is the current resolution of your video card?Bruce Jones

Re: Lines showing up Dashed instead of Solid Obscuredltype, plinegen, celtype all come to mind. Originally Posted by Rico let me try to re-explain ...
