ncl_gqasf - Man Page

(Inquire aspect source flags) — Inquires the values for the aspect source flags that determine whether primitive attributes are to be selected from individual settings or from "bundle tables".

Synopsis

CALL GQASF (ERRIND,LASF)

C-Binding Synopsis

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void ginq_asfs(Gint *err_ind, Gasfs *list_asf);

Description

ERRIND

(Integer, Output) - If the inquired value cannot be returned correctly, a non-zero error indicator is returned in ERRIND, otherwise a zero is returned. Consult "User's Guide for NCAR GKS-0A Graphics" for a description of the meaning of the error indicators.

LASF

(Integer array, output) - An array of settings for the thirteen attributes:

  1. Linetype
  2. Linewidth scale factor
  3. Polyline color index
  4. Marker type
  5. Marker size scale factor
  6. Polymarker color index
  7. Text font and precision
  8. Character expansion factor
  9. Character spacing
  10. Text color index
  11. Fill area interior style
  12. Fill area style index
  13. Fill area color index

Each value of LASF is either "0" (for "bundled") or "1" (for "individual").

Usage

In NCAR Graphics all attribute aspect source flags are defaulted to "individual" (all values for LASF are "1"). It is advised that for dependable results when using NCAR Graphics these values remain in their default settings.  Some GKS packages default these values to "bundled".  GQASF can be called to determine the values of all aspect source flags.

Access

To use GKS routines, load the NCAR GKS-0A library  ncarg_gks.
