Add Fill Patterns

In a JMP graph, Fill Pattern() sets the pattern for filled areas.

Matrix Example

Specify a mask (a matrix of values between 0 and 1) or an image. Each value in the matrix creates a pixel.

win = New Window( "Example",
	Graph Box(
		Fill Pattern(
			[1 0.5 0 0, 0.5 0 0 1, 0 0 1 0.5, 0 1 0.5 0]
		);
		Polygon( [10 30 90], [88 22 44] );
	)
);

Named Pattern Example

Specify a name in quotation marks that corresponds to a pattern shown in Table 12.3.

win = New Window( "Named Pattern Example",
	Graph Box(
		Fill Pattern( "vertical light" );
		Polygon( [10 30 90], [88 22 44] );
	)
);

Graphic Example

Specify an image in quotation marks. If the image is not installed on the viewer’s computer, question marks appear in the shape.

win = New Window( "Graphic Example",
	Graph Box(
		Fill Pattern( Open( "$SAMPLE_IMAGES/pi.gif", "gif" ) );
		Polygon( [10 30 90], [88 22 44] );
	)
);
