Graphics.HGL.Draw.Pen

Description

Pens, used for drawing lines.

Portability notes:

  • On Win32, the pen is also used to draw a line round all the filled shapes --- so the pen color also affects how polygons, ellipses and regions are drawn.
  • On Win32, the Style is ignored (i.e. treated as Solid) for pens of width greater than 1. This problem does not apply to X11.
