DynaPDFMBS.SetLineDashPatternEx(dash as memoryblock, NumValues as Integer, Phase as Integer) as Boolean   Deprecated

dash is a memoryblock with doubles.
So dash.size=NumValues*8.

DynaPDFMBS.SetLineDashPatternEx(dash() as double, Phase as integer) as Boolean   Deprecated

However, this version accepts an array of doubles instead of a string value.
Returns true on success.
See SetLineDashPattern for more details.

If array is nil, the pattern is removed.
