moving overlapping nonlinear paths

[Milko con la elle]

good morning,

may be the subject title need to be corrected cause of my english...

anyway, I need to know an efficient mode to shift the cyan trace from point 1 to point 3.
I mean using the Appearance window.

I'm able to doit with linear trace (with transform effect) not in case of non linear trace.
I try with dotted line without success.

The plugin Nudge Panel can move dashes: https://rj-graffix.com/downloads/plugins/

ok, playing with dotted line it seems I'm getting closer to my goal:

there is just a little unwanted effect (the green line thinner than 0.05 pt), but it is not a problem in my specific case:

Assuming your example №3 is usually what you're looking for, creating custom Art Brushes or Pattern Brushes may be easier than using multiple strokes in the Appearance palette.

Another option may be Objects on a Path objects with just one object on the path.
