[JW Lua] FCCustomSmartLineDefs:Save() deletes "Dash Length" value

[Jan Angermüller]

Jari,

an easy (but dirty) workaround would be to fix it as in I did in the 
code that I posted in my 2nd mail:
temporarily save the LineWidth/LineDashLength values at the beginning of 
SetLineCharacter and re-assign them before leaving SetLineCharacter. 
That's at least how I fixed it in my plugin.

Best regards,
Jan
