Mouse-over a FeatureLayer represented by a dashed line

Question

We have a feature displayed as a dashed red line.  This causes the mouse-over to only register when over a red dash but not over the missing/transparent part of the line.   Does anyone have a solution for this situation?

So far all I have come up with is to add a 2nd version of this FeatureLayer with a solid line and make it transparent.  But this causes complications with the TOC widget.  If the user turns this layer off they can still get a mouse-over when they did not expect one.

I believe that is what I did here:

I will look and see if there is another solution though

Thanks Rickey, but that did not produce the desired affect. The mouse-over popup still disappears when the mouse is over a gap in the dashed line.  Additionally since it is applied to all the paths on the screen it affects other features.

Before adding the suggested path style:

Josh,

Try

path {

stroke-opacity: .1;

stroke-width: 5px;

fill-opacity: .5;
