We present results of fully nonlinear time-dependent simulations of a thin liquid film flowing down an inclined plane. Within the lubrication approximation, and assuming complete wetting, we find that varying the inclination angle considerably modifies the shape of the emerging patterns (fingers versus sawtooth). Our results strongly suggest that the shape of the patterns is not necessarily related to either partial or complete coverage of the substrate, a technologically important feature of the flow. We find quantitative agreement with reported experiments and suggest new ones.
