i conduct SEM with lavaan under Jamovi (SEMLj), and i can't understand what do represent dotted links that connect a latent variable and a manifest variable.
Is it possible to transform them into a continuous link?

It looks like the dashed lines are nonzero fixed (rather than estimated) parameters. Parameters that are fixed to zero are merely excluded from the diagram. But the paths fixed to 1 are following a familiar identification constrain that you can read about in an SEM/CFA textbook.
