NAME

Bio::Graphics::Glyph::dashed_line - The "dashed line" glyph

SYNOPSIS

See L<Bio::Graphics::Panel> and L<Bio::Graphics::Glyph>.

DESCRIPTION

This glyph draws a dashed line. The lengths of the dash and the space are configurable. The space can be filled with a different color, thus making a two-colored line. Also, the two colors can be "sheared".
