for example,
Show[Graphics[{AbsoluteDashing[{10, 5}], Line[{{0, 1},
{1, 0}}], Thickness[0.02], AbsoluteDashing[{5, 10}],
Line[{{0, 0}, {1, 1}}]}]];
making it thicker shows the problem even more
severely.
but it appears to me there is some kinda pattern... i
just don't know what it is.
below shows this pattern (i think) of dashes showing
up rotated every so often.
Needs["Graphics`Legend`"];
Needs["Graphics`Colors`"];
<< Graphics`Graphics`
Plot[{Sin[x], Cos[x]}, {x, 0, 5Pi}, PlotStyle -> {Red,
{Blue, Thickness[0.02] , AbsoluteDashing[{1, 10}]}},
LegendLabel -> "this stuff \nlooks weird", PlotLegend
-> {"Sin", "Cos"}, LegendPosition -> {1.1, -.25},
LegendShadow -> {0, 0}, ImageSize -> 500];
maybe if we get rid of the rotations, then the dashing
will improve in appearance. so... is that possible?
thanks in advance for any insights
sean
