>From the canvas(n) man page for Tk 8.3:
On systems where only a limited set of dash patterns, the
dash pattern will be displayed as the most close dash pat
tern that is available. For example, on Windows only the
first 4 of the above examples are available. The last 2
examples will be displayed identically as the first one.
So it appears that Windows simply doesn't support that dash pattern.
