To create this symbol, start from an empty line symbol and then do the following steps:
To create this line symbol, enter the following parameters to a newly created line symbol:
 
In the Main Line page:
# Choose the color for the dashed center line in '''Line color'''. Note that this color must be above the yellow fill color in the color table. In addition, the yellow fill color must be above the color for the side lines. Therefore you need 3 colors to create this symbol: Black for the center line, yellow for the infill and black for the side lines.
# Enter the width of the dashed center line in '''Line width'''.
# Enter the distance from the start of the line to the start of the dashed center line in '''Distance from start'''.
# Enter the same distance in '''Distance to the end'''.


'''Main Line'''
* Line color: black (define and edit colors in the '''[[Colors]]''' dialog, which can be found in the '''[[Map]]''' menu). Note that this color must be above the yellow fill color in the color table. In addition, the yellow fill color must be above the color for the side lines. Therefore you need 3 colors to create this symbol: Black for the center line, yellow for the infill and black for the side lines.
* Line width: 0.2 mm
* Distance from start: 0.2 mm
* Distance to the end: 0.2 mm

In the Distances page:
'''Distances'''
# Enter the dash length of the center line in '''Main length a'''.
* Main length a: 1.0 mm
# Enter the dash length of the center line also in '''End length b'''.
* Main gap C: 0.7 mm
# Enter the length of the gap in the center line in '''Main gap C'''.

In the Double Line page:
'''Double Line'''
# Choose '''Full lines''' for '''Mode'''.
* Mode: Full lines
# Enter the width of the yellow infill in '''Width'''.
* Width: 1.0 mm (This is the width of the filling, therefore also the distance between the sidelines)
# Check Fill.
* Fill color: On checked, yellow (define and edit colors in the '''[[Colors]]''' dialog, which can be found in the '''[[Map]]''' menu). Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line in the color table, otherwise it will cover the dashed line. In addition, it must be above the color of the sidelines, otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
# Choose the yellow color in '''Fill color'''. Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line in the color table, otherwise it will cover the dashed line. In addition, it must be above the color of the sidelines, otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
* Left line color: black (define and edit colors in the '''[[Colors]]''' dialog, which can be found in the '''[[Map]]''' menu). Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line and the filling in the '''[[Colors|Color Table]]''', otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
# Enter width and color in the box '''Left line'''.
* Left line width: 0.2 mm
# Enter width and color in the box '''Right line'''.
* Right line color: black (define and edit colors in the '''[[Colors]]''' dialog, which can be found in the '''[[Map]]''' menu). Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line and the filling in the '''[[Colors|Color Table]]''', otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
 
* Right line width: 0.2 mm

To create this line symbol, enter the following parameters to a newly created line symbol:

Main Line

  • Line color: black (define and edit colors in the Colors dialog, which can be found in the Map menu). Note that this color must be above the yellow fill color in the color table. In addition, the yellow fill color must be above the color for the side lines. Therefore you need 3 colors to create this symbol: Black for the center line, yellow for the infill and black for the side lines.
  • Line width: 0.2 mm
  • Distance from start: 0.2 mm
  • Distance to the end: 0.2 mm

Distances

  • Main length a: 1.0 mm
  • Main gap C: 0.7 mm

Double Line

  • Mode: Full lines
  • Width: 1.0 mm (This is the width of the filling, therefore also the distance between the sidelines)
  • Fill color: On checked, yellow (define and edit colors in the Colors dialog, which can be found in the Map menu). Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line in the color table, otherwise it will cover the dashed line. In addition, it must be above the color of the sidelines, otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
  • Left line color: black (define and edit colors in the Colors dialog, which can be found in the Map menu). Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line and the filling in the Color Table, otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
  • Left line width: 0.2 mm
  • Right line color: black (define and edit colors in the Colors dialog, which can be found in the Map menu). Note that this color must be below the color of the dashed line and the filling in the Color Table, otherwise crossings are not cleared automatically.
  • Right line width: 0.2 mm
