NAME

DvInqRendStyle − Return the rendering style of a view

SYNOPSIS

C:

DtRenderStyle DvInqRendStyle(view)
DtObject view ;

Fortran:

INTEGER∗4 DVQRS(VIEW)
INTEGER∗4 VIEW

DESCRIPTION

DvInqRendStyle returns the rendering style of the view specified by the parameter view.  The rendering style is a top level selection of the rendering process.  There are two currently supported rendering styles:

DcRealTime <DCRLTM>
Fast, interactive display rendering.  This renderer runs fast enough for dynamic operations that require continuous updates of the scene without the user’s awareness of rendering time.

DcProductionTime <DCPRTM>
Slowest, most realistic rendering.  This renderer does the most sophisticated rendering within the user’s requested parameters.  Dor´
e may economize if the application’s parameters negate the effect of the time-intensive techniques.

The value returned by DvInqRendStyle is equivalent to the current renderer identifier.  Using a renderer other than the Dynamic Renderer or the Standard Production Renderer will result in a different renderer identifier returned from DvInqRendStyle. 

ERRORS

DvInqRendStyle will fail if the view parameter is not a valid view; the returned value is undefined. 

[WARNING - invalid view handle]
