The area may be shaded [cShade] or filled with a pattern [cFill] : The shading percentages are (default "20") : "1 thru 2" = 2% shade "3 thru 10" = 10% shade "11 thru 20" = 20% shade "21 thru 35" = 30% shade "36 thru 55" = 45% shade "56 thru 80" = 70% shade "81 thru 99" = 90% shade "100" = 100% shade The pattern fills are (default "6"): "1" = horizontal lines "2" = vertical lines "3" = diagonal lines top right to bottom left "4" = diagonal lines top left to bottom right "5" = #1 and # 2 combined "6" = #3 and # 4 combined <nCpi> is the characters per inch, and defaults to 10. <nLpi> is the lines per inch, and defaults to 6. Examples: --------- SL_FILL(10,10,20,20,"50") // fills from 10,10 to 20 20 with 50% shading Notes: ------- Does not send anything to the printer - instead returns a control string that you send to the printer.
