Please note this is an English language forum.

You don't mention what component of OpenOffice you are using. If it is Writer:
1. Select a line drawing object in a document.
2. Choose Format - Drawing Object - Line and click the Line Styles tab.
3. Specify the line options that you want.

If you are using Draw, the process is very similar:
1. Select a line drawing object in a document.
2. Choose Format - Line and click the Line Styles tab.
3. Specify the line options that you want.

Hi, and welcome to the forum. This is an English language forum. I ignored the text in Russian. Thank you for the translation.

You have not told us which component of OpenOffice you're asking about. Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, and so on all have different features. We need to know which component you are having trouble with. A moderator will then move your topic from Beginners to the correct forum where you will find people who have experience with that component.

There are many different ways in OpenOffice to make something which one might call a line. For some, one can use dotted lines. For others one cannot use dotted lines. We need to know which feature you are asking about. Attach a document demonstrating the difficulty (remove confidential information then use Post Reply, not Quick Reply, and don't attach a picture instead of the document itself). I will not help further unless you attach. Explain which line in your attachment you would like to change.
