Hello! I’m trying to create a dotted-lined shape, and I see the option but it is always disabled (it is also presented in a demo video but it is also disabled there, and clicking the option doesn’t activate or changes anything). Could you tell me how to activate it? Thanks in advance

You’re clicking the wrong spot, try clicking 16 px below where you were clicking instead 🙂

Which option is disabled? Can you show some screenshots?

Advanced Stroke → Dashes

Thank you so much! Not really used to vertical form groups, but inline 🙂

I am having a similar issue - advanced stroke is disabled. I don’t see another option to activate it. Thank you for the help.

Hello Kelly, dashed line is available under “Stroke style” section in the menu you showed =)

But stroke style is disabled…

You have to click off the pen tool - so finish your line, then it should be able to use
