-The B<DASHED> modifier enables dashed line style. Without any further options
-a symmetric dashed line with a segment length of 5 pixels will be drawn.
-The dash pattern can be changed using the B<dashes> parameter, which can be
-followed by either one value or an even number (1, 2, 4, 6, ...) of positive
-values. Each value provides the length of alternate I<n_on> and I<n_off>
-portions of the stroke. The B<dash-offset> parameter specifies an I<offset>
-into the pattern at which the stroke begins.
