FillStyle()

Summary

Creates a new fill style.

 

Syntax

fillstyle = FillStyle(array specification)

 

Argument	Contents
specification	An array of eight strings containing eight characters each

 

Returns

A string indicating the new fill style.

 

Notes

• The strings define an 8x8 pattern grid. Spaces are filled with the background color and non-spaces are filled with the foreground color.

• Passing null for the specification returns the not filled fillstyle.

Example

str1 = "XXXXXXXX"

str2 = " "

str3 = "X X X X "

str4 = " X X X X"

solid = FillStyle({str1, str1, str1, str1, str1, str1, str1, str1})

empty = FillStyle({str2, str2, str2, str2, str2, str2, str2, str2})

shaded = FillStyle({str3, str4, str3, str4, str3, str4, str3, str4})
