Dashed line cut off on first and last dashes

[mhovany]

Hello!

I'm creating a dashed line in lllustrator and the first and last dash of every line is shorter than the rest of the dashes. Images attached. Any thoughts appreciated!

thanks,

Megan

Megan,

As I (mis)understand it, in the Dashed Line part click the leftmost Dashes pattern instead of the rightmost one. The latter gives you half a dash on either side of a corner as well as at start and end.

you're so right, thanks Jacob!

You are welcome, Megan.

I don't get anything from the supposedly "Correct Answer". Is there a way to fix this?
