Re: [Therion] create area filled with a colour

If you want to create a user defined area, you could copy the area water code from here http://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/doku.php?id=metapost And modify it like this say... code metapost def a_u_myarea (expr p) = T:=identity; thfill p withcolor black; % or 0.5green + 0.1red for example enddef; endcode initsymbol("a_u_myarea ") #to include the new symbol in the legend... code metapost def a_u_myarea_legend = a_u_myarea(<some appropriate code in here>) enddef; endcode

Dear friends,

Is there a way to create a simple filled area? Suppose I want to create a black area enclosed by a line of type border to draw the outline of a pillar, which is to big to be represented as a point symbol.
