question about dotted line

Hello,

I have created a graphic with a dotted circle. 

If I select this dotted circle and go to the Outline menu / dotted, I see that for this dotted circle I am unable to select the right dotted symbol in this menu (see blue arrow) : it is grey. Why ?

 

 

It is strange because for some graphics with dotted line I can select this dotted symbol in the menu, but for some others graphics I cannot.

Hi Monika,

I have now used the button to align the dotted line at the center of the path,  and it worked (I can now select the right dotted button).

I need to use this right dotted button, because I have seen that if I don't do that,  for the exported SVG in Word, the result is strange about the dotted lines.

I'm wondering about the SVG, since SVG doesn't support that setting natively.
