    Need documentation on Stroke class

    It seems that the Stroke documentation links to the Brushes class.

    I need to find the NT8 way of doing this in NT7:

    Code:
    Pen FooPen= new Pen(Color.Cyan);
    FooPen.DashStyle = DashStyle.DashDot;
    FooPen.Width=1;
    			
    Add(new Plot(FooPen, PlotStyle.Line, "Foo"));
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hello,

    A Stroke can define each of these items (Brush, Dash Style, and Width), using the following constructor. Note that you will now need to use Brush rather than Pen to set colors.

    Code:
    Stroke(Brush brush, DashStyleHelper dashStyle, float width);
    Example:

    Code:
    AddPlot(new Stroke(Brushes.Blue, DashStyleHelper.DashDot, 1), PlotStyle.Bar, "myPlot");

      Speaking of which, can we still really define a Stroke with a Pen? (See syntax #5).

      Did I misunderstand that Pens are kind of verboten when coding in NT8?

        We cannot, and you did not. It looks like we overlooked removing that overload from the help guide, so I'll take care of that now, and it will be gone the next time we publish the help guide. Thanks for catching that.
