NOTE Drawings containing legacy linetypes that do not use the U (upright) rotation
flag can be updated to the latest linetype definition by reloading the linetype from
the LIN files. Custom linetypes can be updated by changing the R (rotation) flag
to the U (upright) flag prior to reloading a linetype definition. For information on
loading a linetype, see Load Linetypes.
xoffset X=value. The shift of the shape in the X axis of the linetype computed
from the end of the linetype definition vertex. If xoffset is omitted or is 0, the
shape is elaborated with no offset. Include this field if you want a continuous
line with shapes. This value is not scaled by the scale factor defined by S=.
yoffset Y=value. The shift of the shape in the Y axis of the linetype computed
from the end of the linetype definition vertex. If yoffset is omitted or 0, the
shape is elaborated with no offset. This value is not scaled by the scale factor
defined by S=.
