'''Dotted Line Blocks''' (sometimes formatted as '''Dotted-Line Blocks'''<ref>''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'' instruction booklet, page 49.</ref>) are transparent objects found in several [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' games]] such as ''[[Super Mario World]]'', ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. 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 [[Exclamation Mark Block|! Block]]s once the player hits the [[! Switch]] in the [[Switch Palace]] of the corresponding color. In both ''Yoshi's Island'' games, after hitting a nearby ! Switch, the Dotted Line Blocks will temporarily become solid and are able to be used as platforms. Dotted Line Blocks in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' become [[Red Switch Block]]s after pressing the red ! Switch in [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3]].

Transparent boxes similar to Dotted Line Blocks appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its remake ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', where they turn solid and are able to be used after hitting the [[? Switch]] in the level "[[Tower of the Wing Cap]]."
