The EA command defines and edges a rectangle using absolute

 

 

coordinates and the current pen, line type and line attributes. The

 

 

EA command performs an automatic pen down. When the command

 

 

execution is complete, the original pen location and up/down status

 

 

are restored.

 

 

 

 

 

z X,Y Coordinates — Specify the opposite corner of the rectangle

 

 

from the current pen location. The current pen location is the

 

 

starting point of the rectangle. Coordinates are interpreted in

 

 

current units: as user-units when scaling is on; as plotter units

 

 

when scaling is off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

 

The following illustration shows the current pen location in the lower

 

 

left corner and the command’s X,Y coordinates in the upper-right

 

 

corner. Depending on the coordinate values, the points can be in

 

 

any two diagonally opposite corners.
