Bio::G...ed_line(3pm)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for Bio::Graphics::Glyph::dashed_line — aka the "dashed line" glyph. that's the whole vibe. it draws dashes. iconic behavior honestly.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

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

like, go read those first, i'm not repeating myself 🫶

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so this glyph draws a dashed line. periodt. 💅

the length of the dash and the length of the space between dashes? both configurable, obviously, we're not savages.

and here's the cute part — the space can be filled in with a different color, which gives you a whole two-colored line. obsessed. 🌈

ALSO, the two colors can be "sheared". yeah. sheared. it's giving layered. it's giving dimension. iykyk. ✨

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

okay so on top of the common options, this glyph has its own little set of extras that it recognizes. let's go through them one by one, no skipping, i don't play that 🙈

• -dash_size — how wide one single dash is. default is 6.
• -space_size — how wide one space between dashes is. default is 3.
• -space_color — the color of the space sitting between the dashes. default is none (so like, nothing, empty, void, the gap).
• -shear — whether to use shearing or not. give it 1 or 0. default is 0.
• -linewidth — okay technically this is a standard option, but it's lowkey highkey important here specifically, so we're listing it. default is 1.

and that's the whole page bestie!! 🦋 this was documented with perl v5.30.0 and dated 2019-11-25, and yeah the page name gets truncated to Bio::G...ed_line(3pm) in the footer which is honestly giving "we ran out of room at the function name", but you knew what it meant. mwah. 💜✨
