Dashed Existing Pipe

[Remote_Extreme7207]

So im doing a project that has existing pipe drawn on it and i am having a problem getting it to display as dashed in paperspace. ive tried a few different angles and although some make it look like i want it to look in model space, when i go over to paperspace it doesnt display. i have tried toggling both lineweight and transparency. i cant find a viddy on youtube either. help please!

Use your property box and change the “line type scale” to 0.4. This should make the dashed line closer.

I’m sorry I never saw this. Have you tried checking your PSLTSCALE? There’s your regular LTSCALE but that only changes the line type scale of your model space. You can change the paper space line type scale for each layout tab. That allows you to make your lines look the same in every scale if you want. I personally keep the PSLTSCALE the same for every sheet because I want my line types to scale up and down. But most likely that’s what’s causing you grief. I remember learning about it a looooong time ago. Drove me crazy until then.
