Graph Issue: Dashed Line Saving as Solid Line

I prefer to show interpolated data as a dashed line, and my work around in Eviews12 was to have a separate line object with no legend entry that was dashed. In Eviews13, however, when I use the same code and save the graph as a png, the dashed portion of the line gets saved as a solid line despite appearing dashed in the workfile. Do you know what could be causing this?

Is your copy of EViews 13 up to date (Help->About EViews will give the build date)

In Statistics Norway, we experience similar problems with dashed lines in both EViews 13 and 14, while we have no problems with dashed lines in EViews 12 (which we continue using fro graphing purposes only). In Eviews 14, I have tried to replace dashed lines with solid lines of the same color, but a lighter tint to separate the historical data from the forecasted continuation. That does not work either. The two lines get the same color even if I specify completely different colors. My question is:
Havecertain graph related functions within EViews12 been 'outsourced' to / replaced by similar Windows functions which introduce incompatibilities that could be the cause of the problems?
