Figure 2. 3. Result of Draw Commands: Relative Lines Edge limits In this command sequence, the PRESCRIBE mode begins with the !R!, resets the printing system defaults to permanent settings with RES;, and establishes a pen width of 0.01 inches with the SPD 0.01;. The MRP (Move to Relative Position) and DRP (Draw to Relative Position) specify positions in relation to the cursor's current position. When the command sequence starts, the cursor is located at the intersection of the left and top margins. The command MRP 2, 1; on line 3 moves the cursor 2 inches to the right of its current position, and down 1 inch from its current position. Then the command DRP -1.5, -1; draws a line from that point to a point 1.5 inches to the left of the cursor position and 1 inch above it. The cursor winds up 0.5 inches to the right of the point where it started. Lines 5 to 8 repeat the move-and-draw sequence two more times.

Figure 2. 3.

Result of Draw Commands: Relative Lines

In this command sequence, the PRESCRIBE mode begins with the !R!, resets the print-

ing system defaults to permanent settings with RES;, and establishes a pen width of 0.01

inches with the SPD 0.01;.

The MRP (Move to Relative Position) and DRP (Draw to Relative Position) specify

positions in relation to the cursor’s current position.

When the command sequence starts, the cursor is located at the intersection of the left

and top margins. The command MRP 2, 1; on line 3 moves the cursor 2 inches to the

right of its current position, and down 1 inch from its current position. Then the com-

mand DRP -1.5, -1; draws a line from that point to a point 1.5 inches to the left of the

cursor position and 1 inch above it. The cursor winds up 0.5 inches to the right of the

point where it started.

Lines 5 to 8 repeat the move-and-draw sequence two more times. This produces three

parallel lines, as shown in the figure on the previous page.

Lines in Terms of Angles

Until now, all of our examples have specified positions in terms of Cartesian (

X,Y

) coor-

dinates. This example illustrates drawing lines of specified lengths and angles.
