What is line type?

Line type refers to the various styles or patterns of lines that are used to convey information on a drawing, chart, or graph. Line type can describe the thickness, length, and style of lines, such as solid, dashed, dotted, or dashed-dotted. Line type can also reference the purpose of a line, such as a boundary line, centerline, or dimension line. The use of different line types can help to differentiate between objects, emphasize important information, or provide clarity and organization.
