Description

PINSK sets the stroke device to application-specific values.  You specify the coordinates of the initial stroke (in world coordinate values) and the initial view index of the view transformation Digital PHIGS uses to translate the device coordinate points to normalized projection coordinate points.  The z-components of a previously specified stroke remain unchanged. 

This function accepts the echo area in a 4-component list of x- and y-coordinates, in device coordinates.  The order of the list components is XMIN < XMAX, YMIN < YMAX.  The z-components of a previously specified echo volume remain unchanged. 

When an application calls PINSK, the workstation surface cannot contain the stroke device’s prompt.  To remove an existing prompt from the surface, call the PSSKM function and place the device in request mode. 

The size and contents of the data record depend on the prompt and echo type you specify.  If the size or contents of the data record does not match the requirements of your chosen prompt and echo type, Digital PHIGS generates an error. 

See Stroke-Class PET for information on stroke-class prompt and echo types.
