XES COMMAND LANGUAGE MODE
For the X and Y variables in the commands, any number from
minus 16,000 to 16,000 may be specified. Negative and positive
numbers outside window boundaries are acceptable, but only
the segment of the image within the window will print.
When a number for X is missing in a command, the printer uses
the x-coordinate from the current graphic position. When a
number for Y is missing, the printer uses the y-coordinate from
the current graphic position.
Each command includes a variable for the line thickness of the
image drawn. The maximum line thickness for a graphic image is
15 pixels; even if you enter a larger number, the line prints 15
pixels thick and no error is reported. If no variable for thickness
is entered in the command, the printer uses three pixels as a
default.
If a line thickness of zero is entered, no image prints; however,
the current graphic position changes to the last set of x- and y-
coordinates entered.
Graphic Line
Purpose Draws lines between any two points within the graphic window.
Syntax
EglT;X1,Y1,X2,Y2,Xn,YnL
gl The instruction to draw a graphic line.
T The thickness of the line. The maximum value is
16. No error message is generated if a greater
value is entered.
; The semicolon is required. If it is omitted, the
command is ignored. Commas separate the other
variables.
X1,Y1 The coordinates of the first point in the line. X is
the horizontal distance, from the left edge of the
graphic window. Y is the vertical distance, from the
top edge of the graphic window.
X2,Y2 The coordinates of the second point in the line.
Xn,Yn The coordinates of the next point in the line.
L Line end.
