    RESOLVED setting line preferences

    Hi y'all,

    How do I set the thickness, and type of a line?

    VB Code:
    1. MyForm.line (x1,y1)-(x2,y2),rgb(255,0,0)

    I want to change the thickness so it's drawn 'bold'
    I also want to be able to set the linetype, i.e. dashed, dash-dot, continious.

    any help is more than welcome
    Thanks in advange

    You can use DrawWidth and DrawStyle.

    Before drawing your line set the values of these to an integer. e.g.


    VB Code:
    1. DrawWidth = 3

    2.     DrawStyle = 3

    Or if you want to make things difficult for yourself, draw lots of parallel lines

    Jamie,

    That's not nearly difficult enough. Why not use PSet()?
