Figure 21-24Fill Rectangle Relative

The only difference between the RR command and the ER (Edge Relative Rectangle) command is that the RR command produces a filled rectangle, and ER, an outlined one.

The RR command clears the polygon buffer and then uses it to define the rectangle before drawing. A rectangle requires enough buffer space to hold five points.

The following example uses RR with three different fill types (refer to the FT command description) to create rectangles such as those you might use in a bar chart. The rectangles in the right bar are edged using the ER command.

?E		Reset the printer.

		physical pen, the SP command must be used to
		enable printing.

RR400,800;		(400,400). Fill a rectangle with the default fill

		and 800 plu up from there.
