Comparisons
In order for FILLINC
to have any effect, a software fill must be used. To force a software
fill, use the options NOFILL, NOPIEFILL, and NOPOLYGONFILL in a GOPTIONS
statement.
If FILLINC is set to
0 or 1, adjacent lines are used (solid fill with no gaps). If FILLINC
is set to 2, a pixel-width line is skipped before drawing the next
line of a fill.
This option can be useful
for keeping plotters from over saturating a solid area and for speeding
the plotting. Some inks spread on paper. The type of paper used can
also affect ink spread.
