Syntax

DASHSCALE=scaling-factor

scaling-factor
can be any number greater than 0. For example, GOPTIONS DASHSCALE=.5 reduces any existing dash length by one-half.


Details

Only dashes or spaces with lengths greater than one pixel are scaled. Dots are not scaled because their length is effectively zero. DASHSCALE= always uses software line styles instead of the device's hardware dashed line capabilities.
