Available options are None, Left, and Right. Setting the Display Cutoff Fill option to None turns off the display of the cutoff fill. Setting the Display Cutoff Fill to Left fills from the Cutoff Value to the left side of the bounding box or log. Setting the Display Cutoff Fill to Right fills from the Cutoff Value to the right side of the bounding box or log. The cutoff fill properties overwrite the log fill properties.
