FILLINC= 0...9999

Details

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 also can affect ink spread.
