<div dir='ltr'>Hello Håvard,<br><br>Thanks for your answer, I tested yesterday in my 5.6 version and it also works well, the problem is that after changing the values during many hours I couldn't set properly the right value to get that "opened v", so I think just doing random changes here and there won't help me to draw well this figure. I was thinking about some tips to draw this image, I think first I should take a piece of paper and draw this image and then take the measurements from it, is this the right, easy way to do it? those values in v-poly were calculated in this way?<br><br>Gery<br><font style="" color="#366092"><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2"><font style="" face="Arial"></font></font></font><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2013 00:07:25 -0800<br>From: <a href="/user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=5036887&i=0" target="_top" rel="nofollow" link="external">[hidden email]</a><br>To: <a href="/user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=5036887&i=1" target="_top" rel="nofollow" link="external">[hidden email]</a><br>Subject: Re: tips to draw a symbol‏<br><br>

        Dear Gary,
<br><br>The v-poly symbol should be OK (I just tested it with
<br>6.2 and 5.6.6).  If you want an open V, you should
<br>use only outlinecolor:
<br><br>       STYLE
<br>         SYMBOL "v-poly"
<br>         SIZE 30
<br>         OUTLINECOLOR 0 255 0
<br>       END # STYLE
