I have a couple of questions about dashed lines in the block schematic drawing:

1)  When using a dashed line in a block schematic drawing, the size of each dash is very small, resulting in a line that almost appears to be solid.  Is there a way to increase the scale of the dashes without also increasing the line thickness?  In AutoCAD this would be achieved by increasing the "linetype scale".

2)  When using the monochrome printing method, I can't get dashed lines (or even solid lines) to print in anything other than full dark black color.  I tried changing the line's color to a gray which looks good on screen, but monochrome printing overrides that and it prints as dark black.  I even tried setting the line to an ARGB color with a 50% opacity (ARGB color value 128, 0, 0, 0) but again the monochrome printing ignores the opacity and it prints as a dark black line.

Hoping you have some suggestions.  Thanks.
