Drawing Dashed Lines (new user question)

How do I draw a simple dashed line? I can see that by setting the interval for my brush I can make a dotted line, but none of the brushes produce dashes.

Hi Joel
In the brush selection dialog select "new" and you'll get a box showing a basic brush and 4 sliders.
For your dashed line leave the radius at 10, set hardness to 1 (to give the brush hard edges), set the
angle to whatever you want (0=horizontal, 90=vertical), and put the width/height ration to the max.
Overwrite "untitled" with whathever name you want then close the editor. The brush will be in the brush selection dialog. Set the interval you want and go.
Cheers

Just a precision on my previous post: to change the length of your dash, play on the radius value, but keep it under 20 or you won't get a straight line (over 20 it will thicken in the middle) Cheers
