Inkscape

Is it possible to save a line type as a macro?

Asked by Alastair Richardson

I would like to save various line types (line widths, dashes) to be used consistently in various projects. Is that possible? I have only just started with Inkscape; I hope this is not a naive question, but I can't find any reference to macros.
