   Dunno, probably because indesign is more of a layout program rather than an “from the ground up” image creation program. Thanks 🙂

   You just saved me loads of time! After using Photoshop for 20+ years I’m muscling my way through Illustrator…. not always intuitive. THANKS!

    You have to set the end cap to round. This is found right next to the stroke weight.

    My dashed line has dashes instead of circles. The dash value is 0 pt. I have no idea what I’m doing wrong!
