Description

DPTVW adds the specified structure to the list of posted structures entry in the workstation state list for a particular view.  If the specified structure does not exist, it is created by the function. This function also assigns a display priority to the structure. 

Depending on the current edit mode, this function either inserts the new structure element directly after the element indicated by the pointer or replaces the element indicated by the pointer.  The pointer then points to the new post structure to a view element. 

If Digital PHIGS is in immediate mode, it performs this function immediately, but the function does not create a structure element.
