[PCB_FORUM] Re: 15.2 (User Preferences Display shape fill def ault 4 pixels)

Previous to 15.0, Allegro filled shapes by using the line
draw method. You could use the environment variable
display_shapefill to control the spacing between lines.

In 15.0, we introduced shape stencil draw where two
2 fill styles are used to differentiate static versus
dynamic shapes. 

By default on UNIX platform, the stencil draw style is enabled 
while on Windows (due to performance issues we found with some
popular laptop graphics cards) the fill style is the old line
draw method.

If you want to use the 14.x line draw for shape fill then
you should enable the old_shape_fill_style (enved shape grouping)
and also make sure that the new_shape_fill_nt is env variable
is off. 

Once you make these changes then shapes will be filled using
the line draw method and display_shapefill can be used to
control the distance between lines.
