Shape Constants (GPL)

The following constants are all the valid constants for the different graphic element types. Note that the constants for the edge graphic element appear in multiple tables.

The following constants can also be used with the shape.exterior function to specify the border dashing of all other graphic elements. An exception is the edge element, for which shape.interior defines the overall shape or dashing. These constants are also used with the shape function that specifies the dashing of form.line guides.
