Feature Requests for draw.io: Customizable Dashed Line Style, Batch Selection of Pages, and Update Reminder
- [x] I agree to follow the Code of Conduct that this project adheres to.
- [x] I have searched the issue tracker for a feature request that matches the one I want to file, without success.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Thank you very much to the developers of draw.io! In March, 21, I downloaded version 13.3 of draw.io with just one dash style that directional connector and line pattern could set, and the others were dotted lines. I just noticed that my desktop app wasn't updated today, so I immediately updated to version 21.2.1. I find that after two years, I can use more shapes, and there are three dash styles that directional connector and line pattern can set. Because of the dashed line used to be, it looks like a dotted line when you zoom out. But I still have two feature suggestions, which I hope developers can consider.
Describe the solution you'd like First, I want to add custom functionality to the dashed line style that directional connector and line patterns can set. The current styles are solid, dashed (1), dashed (2), dashed (3), dotted (1), dotted (2), dotted (3). When I don't want to use these styles, I want a tool to customize the pattern.
Second, I want to add a feature for page batch selection. When I save the entire draw.io document as a new draw.io, I only want to keep a few pages. However, the current 21.2.1 version still does not have the ability to select pages in batches, so it is not good for me to delete them in batches. I need to click pages one by one and delete them. This step is tedious and frustrating.
Third, I want draw.io to show a red dot at the *** of the about feature when there are updates to it to remind users that a new version of draw.io is available.
Additional context

It would nice to have custom line patterns
I agree. Adjusting the step size and size of dashes at the very least would be very nice.
Try Dash Pattern:
Note that individual issues within this issue might well be valid, but it's simply impossible to deal with such an overloaded issue. If anyone wanted one of the issues listed, you are welcome to open as a single ticket.

@alderg Saw that and for some reason did not try it. Thanks. That solves my problem.
