Code example / pointer for dashed/dot line via OnRender?

[pjsmith]

Hi,

OK, so I do actually know how to draw a line in OnRender with a dashstyle, and it works. Kind of The issue, which native NT8 plots do not suffer with, is that if the distance between your draw.Line's is small (bar width is small), then the dash does not get a chance to render. As NT8 plots do not suffer in this manner (and are smoother), I am assuming they don't render with lines point to point, but use some form of geometry?

Any examples available as a reference? Or a pointer to a possible better method?

Thanks.

Hello pjsmith,

Thanks for your note.

I have attached a modified version of my VPA conversion to demonstrate using geometry to draw a line with a dash style. This would be similar to how plots are drawn. The original script is linked below.
