Constants
Defined Argument Constant Description
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TYPE PSET Use the exact state list values.
PREALI Use the values approximated by the
graphics handler.
PREC PSTRP String precision. Digital PHIGS evaluates
character height and width attributes.
PCHARP Character precision. Digital PHIGS
evaluates each character for compliance
with all other specified text attributes.
PSTRKP Stroke precision. Digital PHIGS looks for

Description
PQTXR queries the workstation state list and, for the specified text index, returns values for the following:
•Text font and precision values
•Character expansion factor
•Character spacing
•Text color index
If the specified text index is not in the text bundle table on the specified workstation, and the specified type of returned values is PREALI, Digital PHIGS returns the representation for text index 1. (See the Device Specifics Reference Manual for DEC GKS and DEC PHIGS for workstation-specific information.)
