Seems ok here Dave but I did have to change the dot dash gaps. My dad always told me, a bad workman always blames their tools…. Just waiting for Ronny Pickering…..

DM1 Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 using same settings as you now Paul. Still no dash It works when I use brush and select then tap dash. But Pencil remains solid line. In old version I can draw dash line with pencil. EDIT I cleared all objects off artboard, selected pencil again and now it’s drawing dashed lines!!. I'm really confused. Was it me or the beta? 07E38F7F-2075-4A66-A7C2-DB81B23F2B70.MP4 Patrick Connor 1 M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

Staff Patrick Connor Posted May 25, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 25, 2019 Is this specific to working with a Pencil perhaps?

DM1 Posted May 25, 2019 Author Share Posted May 25, 2019 I get the same effect in 1,6. Nudge the line pressure graph slightly off zero one end and I can no longer dash the line. Reset pressure graph and line dashes. Maybe intended behaviour? Same with brush as pencil tool. M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

The puzzlement expressed in this thread is testament to the fact that the apps should display a warning, or automatically reset the pressure profile, or both.

Yeah, I was thinking about that very thing. If it is not meant to work that way, why not have the dash icon reset the pressure graph. Too easy!
