NAME

6       plpsty - Select area fill pattern
7

SYNOPSIS

9       plpsty(patt)
10

DESCRIPTION

12       If patt is zero or less use either a hardware solid fill if the drivers
13       have that capability (virtually all do) or fall back to a software emu‐
14       lation of a solid fill using the eighth area line fill pattern.  If 0 <
15       patt <= 8, then select one of eight predefined area line fill  patterns
16       to use (see plpat(3plplot) if you desire other patterns).
17
18       Redacted form: plpsty(patt)

20       This function is used in examples 12, 13, 15, 16, and 25.

ARGUMENTS

23       patt (PLINT(3plplot), input)
24              The desired pattern index. If patt is zero or less, then a solid
25              fill is (normally, see qualifiers above) used.  For patt in  the
26              range  from 1 to 8 and assuming the driver has not supplied line
27              fill capability itself (most deliberately do not  so  that  line
28              fill  patterns  look  identical for those drivers), the patterns
29              consist of (1) horizontal lines, (2) vertical lines,  (3)  lines
30              at  45  degrees,  (4)  lines at -45 degrees, (5) lines at 30 de‐
31              grees, (6) lines at -30 degrees, (7) both vertical and  horizon‐
32              tal lines, and (8) lines at both 45 degrees and -45 degrees.
