        mak ran 11        ;# Make 11 random points
        grp 22 22         ;# Make grid of dimension 22 x 22
        mhi grid          ;# Move the grid to workspace 'grid'
        mlo boundary      ;# The closed boundary has been digitized on beforehand
        clp grid          ;# Clip the grid towards the digitized boundary
        map               ;# Map the grid
        acp * opa .6      ;# Actor property for current actor, set opacity to 0.6
        col bla           ;# Black color
