In ArcGIS Online, dashed patterns are not represented in the legend because the patches are not wide enough to show the pattern. This happens with both feature layers and tiled layers. If I publish a tile package from ArcGIS Desktop the legend patch is always 20px wide no matter how wide I made my legend patch in desktop. I used the Advanced ArcMap Settings utility to make wider legend patches in Desktop, but they don't translate to AGOL.
Open the tile package contents with 7zip without actually unzipping (if you unzip to edit, you have to re-zip in a specific way – I believe without compression – or the tile package won’t work in AGOL).
Navigate to here: \servicedescriptions\mapserver\
Edit the mapserver.json file:
Find the legend item and update the following with your new image data
"imageData":"" (in between the quotes will go your Base64 text string)
Edit the "height" and "width" properties to match the custom graphic’s dimensions.
If you’re re-publishing an existing tile package, you’ll also have to update the "url": property with a new guid because I think AGOL stores each image as an object in AGOL that it just references.
Upload this edited tile package to AGOL and add it to the web map.
To provide an example...Capture A will display in the legend as just a line while Capture B will display the triangle marker symbol and looks like this . This was accomplished by moving the starting point of the marker line symbol to the beginning of the line.
Capture A:
Capture B:
