The graPHIGS Programming Interface: ISO PHIGS Subroutine Reference

INITIALIZE STROKE 3 (PHOP,WSOP,*,*)

Purpose

Use Initialize Stroke 3 to initialize the specified stroke device.

The Initialize Stroke 3 subroutine stores the initial stroke, initial view index, prompt/echo type, echo volume and stroke data record in the workstation state list for the specified device.

For all prompt and echo types, the first entry of the stroke data record is the input buffer size, which is an integer in the range(1..n). The graPHIGS API compares this against the available input buffer size for the specified stroke device. If the requested buffer size is greater, then the graPHIGS API records the available size in the workstation state list instead of the specified input buffer size. If the initial stroke is longer than the buffer size, then the graPHIGS API issues an error.

When a stroke measure process begins, it acquires a buffer of the current input buffer size. The graPHIGS API copies the initial stroke pointlist into this buffer, and places the editing position at the initial buffer editing position. The replacement of points begins at this initial position. The x, y, z, and time intervals (where possible) of the data record control the frequency and density of stroke points.

This function supports the following prompt/echo types:

  • Type One displays the current stroke using a workstation-dependent technique.

  • Type Three displays a marker at each point of the current stroke. The marker representation is selected by a marker index, which is stored in the stroke data record.

  • Type Four displays a line joining successive points in the current stroke. A polyline index in the stroke data record selects the line representation used.

    Note:

    The stroke device must be in Request mode.
