CHAPTER 9 HP-GL - 12
•
Plotting is performed only when the pen is down.
•
When the pen is up, plotting is not performed but the cursor position moves to the plot end point.
•
When scaling has been performed, the cursor is moved by relative coordinates in user units.
•
Also, when scaling has been performed, the values for X and Y are real numbers.
• When there is no scaling, the cursor is moved by relative coordinates in graphics units.
•
When there is no scaling, the coordinate values for X and Y are integer numbers.
•
The value for qc is a clamped real number.
•
When qc is positive, counterclockwise plotting from the current point is performed.
•
When qc is negative, plotting is made clockwise from the current position.
• The value for qd is a clamped real number.
•
When qd is not specified, the chord angle is the default value ( 5 degrees ).

CI - Circle plot
CI r(, qd)[;]
r : Radius of circle ( in user units or graphic units )
qd : Chord angle ( in degrees )
•
Plots a circle centred on the current position with a radius r and chord angle qd.
•
After plotting, the cursor returns to its point of origin at the centre of the circle.
•
Plotting is performed whether the pen is up or down.
•
When scaling has been performed, the circle is plotted in user units.
•
Also, when scaling has been performed, the value for r is a real number.
•
When scaling is off, the circle is plotted in graphics units.
•
When there is no scaling, the coordinate value for r is an integer number.
•
When qd is not specified, the chord angle is the default value (5 degrees).
