1095.0. "XGCValues Fill_rule" by RTPSWS::BRILEY (Are you a rock or leaf in the wind) Tue Jul 11 1989 17:51

    I was wondering if someone could give me a good easy English
    explanation of the XGCValue field fill_rule?
    
    Specifically what are the EvenOddRule and the Winding Rules in plain
    english?  And could I have some examples?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Rob

	To save you some trouble, it is only significant when the edges of the polygon cross each other. If you have a "regular" polygon, they are the same. Burns
