GPTXCI - Set Text Color Index

Purpose

Use GPTXCI to insert a Set Text Color Index structure element into the open structure following the element pointer or to replace the element pointed at by the element pointer with a Set Text Color Index structure element depending on the current edit mode.

This structure element specifies an entry in the workstation's rendering color table that defines the color that the graPHIGS API uses to render all subsequent annotation and geometric text primitives. At structure traversal time, the graPHIGS API uses this to render the text primitives when the text color aspect source flag is set to 2=INDIVIDUAL

This attribute sets the same traversal state as the Set Text Color Direct (GPTXCD) subroutine. The traversal default for text color is a color index value of 1.

If the workstation does not support the specified text color index, then the color index defaults to a value of 1.
