RE: Typo in stroke-type style property

Thanks Dave. It helps. And it means that at least on test file will have
to change.

According to the minutes of the f2f meeting in Needham
(http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/28523/f2f_meeting_min
utes_may_2008.pdf), here's what we said about style properties issues:


Style property issues


*	stroke-type

Resolution: Allow line types 1-15, plus negatives.  A reference to an
undefined negative has no effect. Use numbers for all the indices,
instead of names.

*	fill-style

Resolution: Use integers. Note: The name should be interior-style.

*	hatch-type

Resolution: Allow negative values.  Note: The name should be hatch-index

*	pattern-type

Resolution: The user would need some knowledge of pattern table to use
it.  Note: The name should be pattern-index

*	fill-offset: Resolution: The name should be fill-referencepoint
	


Hope this clarifies....

	I'm reading the on the new style properties, and I see some
inconsistencies.
	 
	It's unclear with the current spec which style properties are
set by a name or integer value. At the moment it seems like stroke-type
can be set using "solid" or "1". But other style properties like
interior-style and hatch-index only seem to be settable using it's
integer value. I think some clarification and consistency is needed.
	 
	While it's still unclear if PTC will implement
getStyleProperty(), I wonder if the implementation has to return the
exact same string that was used to set the attribute. 
	 
	Example for stroke-type: setStyleProperty("stroke-type",
"solid"), getStyleProperty("stroke-type") returns 1.
	Example for stroke-weight: setStyleProperty("stroke-weight",
"200%"), getStyleProperty("stroke-weight") returns 0.5 (assuming
original was 0.25).
	 
	Thoughts?
	Benoit.

	Current wording says: "[...] Valid values are: integers 1-6
(which correspond to solid, dash, dot, dash-dot, dash-dot-dot)", the
"1-6" should be replaced by "1-5".
