Drawing Circles
The CIR (draw circle) command draws a circle of a specified radius using the line thickness
set by the SPD (set pen diameter) command. The circle drawn is centered on the
current cursor position; the position of the cursor remains unaffected. See the following
example:
!R! RES;
UNIT C;
SPD 0.1;
MZP 8, 8;
CIR 1;
CIR 2;
CIR 3;

EXIT;
Figure 2. 7. Circles
Lines 1, 2 and 3 start PRESCRIBE mode, reset the printing system to its default parameters,
establish the unit of measurement as centimeters, and set the line width to 0.1 centimeters.
Next, the MZP command moves the cursor to the point that is 8 centimeters to the right
of the left edge limit and 8 centimeters below the top edge limit.
Lines 5, 6, and 7 draw three circles with radii of 1, 2, and 3 centimeters.
Drawing Filled Shapes
The standard graphics mode provides two types of filled shapes: arcs and blocks. Such
shapes are filled with one of the printing system’s predefined patterns, or with a user
defined pattern.
Filled areas of other shapes can be printed using path mode graphics. For details, see the
explanation in section Path Mode Graphics on page 16.
