Option to draw dashed lines
Sleekshot is a very handy tool! Thanks for developing it!
Would be nice to have an option to automatically draw dashed lines with the Pen and Line tool. Here is an example from PureRef:

Hey Leandro, I just issued a new build (v.0.0.45) in the Microsoft Store
It contains 2 new tools: dashed line (shift+l) and dashed pen (shift+p)
Check it, please. Is it good enough?

Hey Leandro!
Thanks a lot for your kind words and for using Sleekshot — I really appreciate it!
Dashed lines sound like a neat idea, and I’d be glad to explore adding that. I usually try to understand the use case first — when and why it’s important in your workflow — so I can make sure the feature brings real value. If you don’t mind sharing what kind of work you usually do (designer, QA, teacher, etc.) and why dashed lines feel more convenient than solid ones in your case, I’ll definitely take a closer look.

Hi Viktor
As an architect, I mainly use Sleekshot to review project drawings, do quick sketch of construction details and make comments on construction photos for the contractor to review.
In this context, dotted lines are quite common representation of support lines when you want to represent some kind of alignment or relationship. I can do it manually, but they don't look as good.
I have attached some example samples of this process. Hope it helps.

Hey Leandro, thanks for such a detailed answer 🙌 It really makes sense and looks like a true problem-solving feature. I’ll take it into work right away. Appreciate your input!
