Element

<LineStyle>

Description

Drawing definition for line geometry. This element applies to the geometry of an associated feature or dynamic graphic element (for example, ray or arc).

A line style can be a simple coloured solid line or a line pattern definition with symbols etc.

Example

If the limpat attribute for the sector feature is set to 2 (dashed line) or the feature is not a sector feature then use NATSTL feature code for the line pattern.
