Name

pe_sphere − Generates a sphere. 

Operating States: PHOP, ∗, STOP, ∗
Digital PHIGS extension function
Creates a structure element

Syntax

void pe_sphere (
  const Ppoint3    ∗center,    /∗ (I) The center point of the sphere ∗/
  Pfloat            radius     /∗ (I) The radius of the sphere ∗/
)

Data Structures

typedef struct {
    Pfloat     x;    /∗ x coordinate ∗/
    Pfloat     y;    /∗ y coordinate ∗/
    Pfloat     z;    /∗ z coordinate ∗/
} Ppoint3;

Description

pe_sphere generates a sphere.  The sphere is drawn in the plane z = n, where n is the z value of the argument center.  The sphere local coordinate system is the xy-plane as defined in the modeling coordinate system. 

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 sphere element. 

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

Digital PHIGS Version 4.1 does not support this function.
