%DRAW (x, y, color, line, size);

x, y: specify coordinates for the end point of the line. Values can be coordinate numbers, numeric constants, or numeric variables. For details, see the Annotate X Variable.
color: specifies the color of the line using a character string without quotation marks. For details, see the Annotate COLOR Variable. Use an asterisk (*) to specify the previous value of the color parameter.
line: specifies the line type (continuous or segmented). The value can be a number, a numeric constant, or a numeric variable. For valid values, see the Annotate LINE Variable for the DRAW function.
size: specifies the width of the line. The value can be a number, a numeric constant, or a numeric variable. For valid numeric values, see the Annotate SIZE Variable for the DRAW function.

The point from which the line is drawn is usually set with the MOVE macro.
