📌 Why this matters
Dotted lines serve as visual separators that guide your audience's attention without creating harsh divisions on your slides. You can use them to connect related elements, show progression through processes, or create subtle boundaries between sections. Unlike solid lines, dotted lines suggest connection rather than separation, making them perfect for flowcharts, timelines, and organizational charts. They also add visual interest to minimalist designs where solid shapes might feel too heavy or distracting for your presentation's overall aesthetic.
