I don't know how to draw dotted lines with tools.
It seems fairly unpredictable, but you can say "set the dashes to
10,5" for example, and in theory lines you draw will be dashed lines
of 10 pixels on, 5 pixels off. In reality, the dashes you get are
different depending on the angle you're drawing at. You can also say
"set the dashes of graphic Line1 to 30", where Line1 would be the name
of a graphic on the card, and that would give you alternate 30 pixels
on, 30 off. But if you resize the graphic, the whole effect is ruined.
Read the help on "dashes" to see the other options there are.
Also, note that if the capStyle of the graphic is "round" and the
interval between dashes--the second number of the pair-- is too small,
the dashes will run together and it will look solid, or like a string
of sausages. For nice, square ends on your dash segments, set the
capStyle to "butt".
