In the ASCII technology file,

In the display.drf,

drDefinePacket(

 …
 )

There is no display packet specified for M1_drawing_c1L. Therefore, the default mask1Color locked display packet is used which has a thick red outline with no stipple.

The graphical representations for shapes using this display.drf for the two mergeColoredPacket environment variable settings are shown below.
