Description

pset_back_int_shad_method specifies the back interior shading method Digital PHIGS uses to display back-facing portions of area primitives.  Depending on the edit mode, this function either inserts the new structure element directly after the pointer or replaces the element indicated by the pointer.  The pointer then points to the new set back interior shading method element. 

During structure traversal, Digital PHIGS sets the current back interior shading method entry in the PHIGS traversal state list to the value associated with the element.  When the current back interior shading method ASF entry in the state list is INDIVIDUAL, Digital PHIGS uses this value to display subsequent back-facing portions of area primitives.  If the specified interior shading method is not available on a workstation, Digital PHIGS uses interior shading method 1. 

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