    Hi 😎

    I got a shape of 80 x 80 mm. I use a dash pattern 12 - 9 ... 12 line 9 space 12 line 9 space ... and so on.

     

    I would like to draw a line in the middel of the shape horizontally - 80 mm - but the dash pattern seems no mm pattern

    How can I can set it to mm or can calculate the appropriate size for the pattern?

    Dashes are proportional to stroke. I'd set the document units to mm and the stroke units to mm.
