''' | '''Dotted-Line Blocks'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'' instruction booklet|page=49|date=2002|publisher=[[Nintendo|Nintendo of America]]|language=en}}</ref> (originally formatted without a hyphen)<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario World'' instruction booklet|page=21|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1991|language=en}}</ref> are transparent objects appearing in a variety of games in the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]] and [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]], such as ''[[Super Mario World]]'' (and [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|its reissue]]), ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]), ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. They represent that they can be solid when a switch is triggered, rather than blocks appearing from nothing. In ''Super Mario World'', they come in four colors and turn into [[! Block]]s once the player hits the [[! Switch]] in the [[Switch Palace]] of the corresponding color. In ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'', ''Yoshi's Island DS'', ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', after the player hits a nearby ! Switch, the Dotted-Line Blocks temporarily become ! Blocks and are able to be used as [[platform]]s. Dotted-Line Blocks in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' can turn into and revert from [[Red Block|red block]]s after the player presses the red ! Switches in [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3]]. In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''Super Mario Run'', red (yellow in ''Run'') ! Switches can change Dotted-Line Blocks into red blocks for a limited time. | ||
Similar objects called '''semi-visible blocks'''<ref>{{cite|language=en|title=''Super Mario 64'' instruction booklet|location=Redmond|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1996|page=19}}</ref> appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', where they turn solid and are able to be used after the player hits the ! Switch or [[? Switch]] on the [[Tower of the Wing Cap]] in both versions and [[The Secret Under the Moat|Vanish Cap Under the Moat]] and the [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]] in the N64 version only. | |||
In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', Dotted-Line Blocks can be triggered by [[ON/OFF Switch]]es, with only the red blocks becoming solid when they are on and only the blue blocks becoming solid when they are off. In the ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' style, they are depicted having a smiling face, while every other style depicts them as faceless blocks. As of the version 2.0 update, [[P Block]]s also appear as an outline like Dotted-Line Blocks while inactive. Although previously not available in the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style, Dotted-Line Blocks were added in the version 3.0.0 update released on April 22, 2020. | |||
In the [[Nintendo Switch]] version of ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', inactive [[Color Block]]s are redesigned to look similarly to Dotted-Line Blocks. | |||

It has been requested that more images be uploaded for this article. Remove this notice only after the additional images have been added. Specific(s): Needs images of the Blue, Off Red, and Off Blue blocks in the 3D World style for Super Mario Maker 2.
Dotted-Line Blocks[1] (originally formatted without a hyphen)[2] are transparent objects appearing in a variety of games in the Super Mario series and Yoshi's Island series, such as Super Mario World (and its reissue), Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (and its reissue), Yoshi's Island DS, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and Super Mario Run. They represent that they can be solid when a switch is triggered, rather than blocks appearing from nothing. In Super Mario World, they come in four colors and turn into ! Blocks once the player hits the ! Switch in the Switch Palace of the corresponding color. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Yoshi's Island DS, Yoshi's New Island, and Yoshi's Woolly World, after the player hits a nearby ! Switch, the Dotted-Line Blocks temporarily become ! Blocks and are able to be used as platforms. Dotted-Line Blocks in New Super Mario Bros. Wii can turn into and revert from red blocks after the player presses the red ! Switches in World 3. In New Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Run, red (yellow in Run) ! Switches can change Dotted-Line Blocks into red blocks for a limited time.
Similar objects called semi-visible blocks[3] appear in Super Mario 64 and its remake, Super Mario 64 DS, where they turn solid and are able to be used after the player hits the ! Switch or ? Switch on the Tower of the Wing Cap in both versions and Vanish Cap Under the Moat and the Cavern of the Metal Cap in the N64 version only.
In Super Mario Maker 2, Dotted-Line Blocks can be triggered by ON/OFF Switches, with only the red blocks becoming solid when they are on and only the blue blocks becoming solid when they are off. In the Super Mario Bros. 3 style, they are depicted having a smiling face, while every other style depicts them as faceless blocks. As of the version 2.0 update, P Blocks also appear as an outline like Dotted-Line Blocks while inactive. Although previously not available in the Super Mario 3D World style, Dotted-Line Blocks were added in the version 3.0.0 update released on April 22, 2020.
In the Nintendo Switch version of Mario vs. Donkey Kong, inactive Color Blocks are redesigned to look similarly to Dotted-Line Blocks.
