Hello,

I tried this in the latest version 7.5, and as far back as 6.1 and it worked fine for me:
1> filled a new matrix with values = sin(x)*cos(y)
2> made a contour line plot
3> brought up plot details, and in the Color Map/Contours tab, changed individual line properties for all Z values that are negative to dashes and closed the dialog
4> plot updates to show dashed lines for -ve z and solid lines for +ve z

Did you try stretching the window, or viewing the graph in full screen mode (menu: View->Full Screen) - perhaps the line style change was not apparent?

Also, note that dash patter spacing can be changed by using the Tools->Options menu item to bring up the Options dialog, and then changing the dash length and separation parameters on the Graph tab of this dialog.

hi dft22000:

Once you have created your contour plot:

1. Select Format:Plot from the Origin menu. This opens the Plot Details dialog box.
2. Select the Color Map/Contours tab and point to the individual line styles for Level values < 0 (in the Line column).
3. When the pointer becomes a "hand," click once to open a dialog box in which you specify line color, style, and width.
