Specifies the pattern of the outline.
Values
0: pulled through
1: dashed
2: dotted
3: dash dot dash dot
4: dash dot dot dash dot dot
Note
Under Windows, lines are only affected by the pattern if their width is exactly 1 pixel. As the specification is in tenths of a millimeter, the results may differ if the resolution of the screen is different. This means that if the thickness is too great, all visible patterns are displayed as "continuous".
