The D3DLINEPATTERN structure describes a line pattern. These values are used by the D3DRENDERSTATE_LINEPATTERN render state in the D3DRENDERSTATETYPE enumerated type.
typedef struct _D3DLINEPATTERN {
WORD wRepeatFactor;
WORD wLinePattern;
} D3DLINEPATTERN;
A line pattern specifies how a line is drawn. The line pattern is always the same, no matter where it is started. (This is as opposed to stippling, which affects how objects are rendered; that is, to imitate transparency.)
The line pattern specifies up to a 16-pixel pattern of on and off pixels along the line. The wRepeatFactor member specifies how many pixels are repeated for each entry in wLinePattern.
