SET ANNOTATION TEXT CHARACTER HEIGHT (PHOP,*,STOP,*)

Purpose

Use Set Annotation Text Character Height to insert a Set Annotation Text Character Height structure element into the open structure following the element pointer or replace the element pointed at by the element pointer with a Set Annotation Text Character Height structure element, depending on the current edit mode.

The application specifies the annotation text character height with respect to the annotation text local coordinate system; that is a two-dimensional coordinate system parallel to the NPC (Normalized Projection Coordinates) x-y plane. The graPHIGS API multiplies the absolute value of the specified height by the scale factor of the current workstation transformation and then maps the result to the closest available height on the workstation.

The traversal default value for annotation text character height is 0.01.

For more information concerning annotation text and annotation text attributes, see The graPHIGS Programming Interface: Understanding Concepts.
