I tried searching the newsgroups to see how do you draw a dotted line but I
was unable to find an answer, drawing a straight line is very easy but not a
dotted one.
So the question is, how do I draw a dotted line?
Thank you.

The way this tends to work in page description languages is the most obvious
trickery - draw a bunch of small short lines in a row.

You can select a line style for a pen that includes standard dot, dot-dash
and so-on or create a custom line style. Lines drawn by pens may also have
end-caps shaped like arrows, diamonds or dots.
Look at System.Drawing.Pen and the DashStyle property which contains a
DashStyle enumeration value.

Not bad, if fact not bad at all... but now I need to scale the line so that
the space between the different patterns is bigger, for example I am
currently using the dash-dot style but the dash and dot are so close
together that in a high resolution screen you can barely tell the line is
not a solid line! Is there a way to scale the line spaces or am I going to
have to create a custom style??
Thank you.

Hi Rene,
I think you should do some custom drawing.
For example, you can take Richard's suggestion, do some trickery, draw a
bunch of small short lines combine with some dot.
