PENSTYLE_SHORT_DASH no different than LONG_DASH?

#1

I see no difference between SHORT_DASH and LONG_DASH pen styles. Not in my app nor in the demo (see image). Is that a wxPython binding issue or a bug in wxWindows?

I see a difference on GTK3 so I’d say that makes it less likely that it’s
a wxPython issue. Can you run the wxWidgets drawing sample and see how it
behaves there you?

IIRC, this is a case of not all styles being supported natively on all platforms, so a close equivalent is chosen instead. If you need a specific dash pattern everywhere, then you can use SetDashes.
