Line type, also called line style, defines the way a line or arc is drawn: as a solid line, a series of dashes, a series of dots, or a combination of dashes and dots.
The line type for all subsequent line primitives is selected using GpiSetLineType. If you want to change the line type to LINETYPE_DOT, for example, any line or arc primitive subsequently drawn is drawn as a dotted line. The following table illustrates the nine standard line types provided by PM.
You cannot define other line types for PM applications.

The default line type (LINETYPE_DEFAULT) is identical to the LINETYPE_SOLID
type, and has a long value of 0L. The error line type (LINETYPE_ERROR) has
a long value of -1L. The following figure illustrates the nine line types.
Your application can determine the current line type using GpiQueryLineType.
