Graphics
LINE TYPE. One ofeleven line types can be selected. Once a line type has been selected, all
drawing vectors are drawn using that line type. The patterns for the predefined line types are
shown in figure D-3. Refer to the Define Line Pattern command for additional information.
Select Line Type:
Ec * m <line type> b
where:
<line type> is
1 Solid line (default)
2 User defined line pattern
3 Current area pattern
4 Predefined pattern #1
5 Predefined pattern #2
6 Predefined pattern #3
7 Predefined pattern #4
8 Predefined pattern #5
9 Predefined pattern #6
1 0 Predefined pattern #7
11 Point plot
Point plot causes a single point to be plotted at the coordinates specified by the data. This line
type is useful for generating "scattergram" type graphs. If current area shading is selected
(type
= 3) the line patterns used are selected from the eight lines making up the area fill
pattern (refer to Define Area Pattern). The display is divided into groups of eight rows and
eight columns. Horizontal and vertical lines are drawn using the appropriate row or column
from the area pattern. Diagonal lines are drawn using a solid vector.
