    Hello again.

    For the purpose of this little tutorial, I refer to a set distance of a path as a "mark path". Say you have a specific distance ("mark path") that you want to indicate (use) or another path ... especially if the path is very curvy.

    Here is an idea to accomplish that.

    See graphic below for a clearer idea of what I am referring to and the steps to do that.

    Make the day great!

    Thank you, inklinea.

    When you say "low size", what do you mean?

    Since this is vector, it should work at any size, and can be re-sized, as needed. Maybe I am missing your meaning.

    Hi, Polygon. Can you share more details about the dashed lines and the XML editing you are referring to? Even iclude images and gif? I am eager to learn.

    Thank you.
