How about "Spaced dots"?

The original text isn't my creation but if there is a better suggestion
for a description I can submit a change based on that.

Hi Caolán,

thank you, yes, you are right but this description and similar ones 
(e.g. double dot) are confusing. There are no strange long dots, the 
dotted lines just have a bigger spacing between the dots.

Is this RID_SVXSTR_DASH1 "Long Dot" ? If so it isn't a character but a
fairly recent addition of an attempt at a description for a line style
seen in e.g. impress, format->object->line->line->line properties

Hi Sophie,

it's one of the today's new strings in Master:

https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/master/include/svx/strings.hrc#887

For me a dot can be either big or small, but long? A dash can be long. 
The entity is ID_SVXSTR_DASH1.



Thanks,

Michael
