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?

Thank you for an answer to my first question.However nobodyresponded with an answer for my second question.
Iguess the issue that was first posted about in <u>2004</u> is still an issue...6 YEARS LATER? I just wonder if I am one of the very few that has this issue.
I think I will start a call with PTC.
