Subject: RE: [gislist] RE: Dashed lines
Date:  12/10/2003 01:35:00 AM
From:  Vassil Vassilev



Hi Monica,
you can try some of these possibilities:
1. Make your lines dashed and do not put outline of the polygons.
2. Make your lines dashed and put white colour as the outline colour of the
polygons - or at least different colour of those of lines.
3. Make the line width of the lines thicker then the outline width of the
polygons.

If you ask me I will prefer the first possibility - much clear and nicer
than the rest two. The second one is quite similar, and the third one
probably will not look nice.
Try them all and it's a matter of your choice.

Hope this work,
Regards,
Vassil
