To create a dotted line, create a bezier path and then use the following method to set the dash style you would like...
-(void)setLineDash:(const float *)pattern count:(int)count phase:(float)phase
This is an example from the NSBezierPath documentation...
array[0] = 5.0; //segment painted with stroke color
array[1] = 2.0; //segment not painted with a color
[path setLineDash:array count:2 phase:0.0];
