Default Multiple Line Formats in ShapeSheet Object

I'm new to shape sheets. Trying to make an object that contains multiple
line formats. Seems like the line format section pertains to all the
geometry. How to I have different line formats in one object?

Thanks

One shape can only contain one line format, ditto for fill format etc. To create multiple
formats you will need to create separate shapes with their particular formats and then
group the shapes.

The Annotation shape is a good example, it consists of two shapes, one part, the handle,
having line pattern 3 (dotted line) and the main body part having line pattern 1 (solid
line).
