GPL to specify line style and color

Art Kendall
If I recall correctly, I used to be able to edit a chart and save the
template.  Then I would see what GPL was generated. now it generates HTML.

I cannot find "line style" in the GPL manual.

I found how to get color.
* Chart Builder.
GGRAPH
   /GRAPHDATASET NAME="graphdataset" VARIABLES=X Y MISSING=LISTWISE
REPORTMISSING=NO
   /GRAPHSPEC SOURCE=INLINE.
BEGIN GPL
   SOURCE: s=userSource(id("graphdataset"))
   DATA: X=col(source(s), name("X"))
   DATA: Y=col(source(s), name("Y"))
   GUIDE: axis(dim(1), label("X"))
   GUIDE: axis(dim(2), label("Y"))
   ELEMENT: point.jitter(position(X*Y))
   ELEMENT: line(position(smooth.linear.uniform(X*Y)),color(color.green))
   ELEMENT: line(position(smooth.mean.uniform(X*Y)),color(color.blue))
   END GPL.

How would I specify style? Weight? Both?
By style I mean things like: dotted, broken, dot-dash, etc.

Suggestions:
It would be very useful if there were documentation for GPL the
cross-walked what can be done in the chart editor for output.
It would be very useful if Chart Builder allowed specification of the
same things that can be done in the chart editor.

Re: GPL to specify line style and color

Check out the shape() function. There are a number of constants for lines
and can be found under GPL Constants in the Contents tree.
