Assign Linetypes
When you select the Linetype field in the Plot Style Table Editor, a list with
a sample and a description of each linetype are displayed. The default setting
for plot style linetype is Use Object Linetype.
Whether you choose to assign a linetype as a property of the object or as a
plot style, you can set the Adaptive Adjustment option. This option adjusts
the scale of the linetype to complete the linetype pattern. If you don't select
Adaptive Adjustment, the line might end in the middle of a pattern. Turn off
Adaptive Adjustment if linetype scale is important. Turn on Adaptive
Adjustment if complete linetype patterns are more important than correct
linetype scaling.
You can apply a global scale factor to non-ISO linetypes and fill patterns in
plot styles.
