The LPEN structure specifies a logical pen. Pens are used to draw lines and borders.
lopnStyle
Specifies the pen style. GDI requires that drivers support at least the following pen styles.
| Value | Meaning |
| LS_SOLID (0) | Draws solid lines. |
| LS_DASHED (1) | Draws dashed lines. |
| LS_DOTTED (2) | Draws dotted lines. |
| LS_DOTDASHED (3) | Draws lines with alternating dots and dashes. |
| LS_DASHDOTDOT (4) | Draws lines with a repeating pattern of a dash followed by two dots. |
| LS_NOLINE (5) | Nothing is drawn. |
| LS_INSIDEFRAME (6) | Creates a pen in which a line is drawn inside the frame of ellipses and rectangles. If the width of the pen is greater than 1 and the pen style is PS_INSIDEFRAME, the line is drawn inside the frame of all primitives except polygons and polylines; the pen is drawn with a logical (dithered) color if the pen color does not match an available RGB value. The PS_INSIDEFRAME style is identical to PS_SOLID if the pen width is less than or equal to 1. |
lopnWidth
Specifies a POINT structure whose x member contains the pen width in device units. A zero-width pen is drawn with the system's smallest width. Negative-width pens have no width and are NULL pens. The y member is ignored.
lopnColor
Specifies the color for the pen. Pen colors are specified as physical colors. For palette-capable devices, the value is a color index if the high byte is 0x0FFH.
