Filled vector object burn

When light burns sends out its commands to burn a closed Vector object using the filled command does the burn consist of something like a dither pattern or is it a continuous burn?

A fill is a continuous on state at the specified speed/power while within the fill area.

As shown by the red regions of the Preview:

Which is why you must keep the engraved region away from the sides of the machine platform and always preview before Firing The Laser.
