Sets the style of the pen - all properties at once. All drawing objects that are inherited from the pen-object will use the pen (see "The Object-Oriented Style" in the Programmer's Manual for details).

You can use the PS_xyz pen styles from Windows GDI, but pen styles other than PS_SOLID are limited by the GDI to pens with a size of 1 pixel under Win 3.x, 9x and ME. So you should always use PS_SOLID until the GDI changes.
