Thanks. This saves having to command the line be drawn twice, and in this case 2pt seems to suffice.

<blockquote type="cite" class="">In trying to create braid diagrams, I would like (in an automatic way) to create crossings which go ?over? other crossings. That is, something like the \rput* option, that is, an \ncline{A}{B} which, if it crosses an earlier
\ncline{C}{D}, dominates it, in the sense that there is a slight space around \ncline{A}{B} so that \ncline{C}{D} ?breaks? at the crossing point. My first guess, \ncline* , has a totally different effect?the unstarred \ncline becomes totally invisible.<br class="">
<br class="">
Is there such an option? Of course a workaround is to give \ncline{C}{D} linestyle=dashed, but the standard picture is to only have a break near the crossing, otherwise it is simply a straight line.<br class="">

<br class="">
Use the border parameter in the ncline command, e.g.<br class="">
<br class="">
\ncline{A}{B}<br class="">
\ncline[border=2pt]{C}{D}<br class="">
