* LINES:
Where:
Lhhhvvv
L= “L” and specifies line drawing,
hhh= horizontal width of line,
vvv= vertical height of line.
** LINES:
Where:
lhhhhvvvv
l= “l” and specifies line drawing, hhhh = horizontal width of line, vvvv = vertical height of line.
*** BOXES: Bhhhvvvbbbsss
Where: | B | = | “B” and specifies box drawing, |
| hhh | = | horizontal width of box, |
| vvv | = | vertical height of box, |
| bbb | = | thickness of bottom and top, |
| sss | = | thickness of sides. |
****BOXES:
Where:
bhhhhvvvvbbbbssss
b= “b” specifies box drawing, hhhh = horizontal width of box, vvvv = vertical height of box,
bbbb = thickness of bottom and top box edges, ssss = thickness of sides of box.
Note: Lines are sometimes better understood as filled in boxes, while boxes are hollow.
Polygons
Polygons are created by defining the positions of the corners, specifying a number of data points that represent the vertices of the object, which can range from a simple line (two points), or a triangle (three points), to any
Record structure for a polygon (spaces have been added for readability):
1 X 11 ppp rrrr cccc P ppp bbbb rrrr cccc rrrr cccc … <CR>
Where:
1 | Rotation (must be 1) | 001 | Fixed Value |
X | Graphic field ID | 0001 | Fixed Value |
1 | Multiplier (must be 1) | rrrr | Row of Point 2 |
1 | Multiplier (must be 1) | cccc | Column of Point 2 |
ppp | Fill Pattern # | rrrr | Row of Point 3 |
rrrr | Row of Point 1 | cccc | Column of Point 3 |
cccc | Column of Point 1 | … | Additional Points |
P | Polygon ID (Fixed Value) | <CR> | Termination Character |

Note: The points must be specified in the order to be drawn; the last point specified is automatically connected to the first point to close the polygon. If only two points are specified, a single line will be drawn. See
