This has been asked a few times over the years but I have yet to see a listed solution that works, at least for me in WF3. I searched the archives. There was a question posed back in 2004 but no response to it. In 2006 someone mentioned using line_style_length in the detail file on a drawing. I tried that but after closing the dialog box, Pro/E removes it. That was probably for an earlier version of WF.
On an assemblydrawing I have changed one of thecomponents to show in a phantom line type. View > Drawing Display > Component Display. I chosePhantomOpque (there is another option, PhantomTrnsp, but I have no idea what the difference is).When I look at the line on the drawing the scale is small and the spacing between the dashes and dots are pretty good. But when I print it out or even create a PDFit becomes larger and does not look good at all.
So my two questions are:
1. What is the difference between the two Phantom lines?
2. Is there a solution to have the line scaleprint out as I see it on the drawing?
