Why aren't my dashed lines working?

I'm trying to make dashed ylines but they seem to not be working.

yline(v_downwash_412,'r','Bell412','--')

Gives the error

"Error using yline (line 35)

Unrecognized property Bell412 for class ConstantLine.

Error in Downwash (line 64)

yline(v_downwash_412,'r','Bell412','--')"

Help

It only doesn't work when I have '--' if I take that out it's fine

If 'Bell412' is the label of ConstantLine, you should write the line specifiers before the label.

yline(1,'r--','Bell412')
