I need to know the variables for creating a linetype.
I know what some things are, not %100 sure on acurately modifying them. However, I can easily copy and modify some. I need to create a new fence line type that looks like this; x----x----x----x. The line needs to start with the x and end with a line. I know the variable "x" in the ["x",simplex,s=.3,r=0.0,x=-0.1,y=-.13] is the x in x----x----x---- etc. I know the s variable stands for the text size. The y stands for the vertical difference of the line and text. the variables before and after the [....] I am not too sure of, but I gather the numbers right before and after the [..] brackets stand for spaces from the text to the lines. Am I right and what do I do to achieve my desired results?
