pset_pick_id(3g)  —  Subroutines

Name

pset_pick_id − Defines the pick identifier value. 

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

Syntax

void pset_pick_id (
  Pint    pick_id    /∗ (I) Pick identifier ∗/
)

Description

pset_pick_id defines the pick identifier value (an integer).  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 set pick identifier element. 

During traversal, Digital PHIGS assigns the currently defined pick identifier to subsequently generated primitives until it encounters either a redefinition of the pick identifier or the end of the structure.  Defining pick identifiers allows you another level of naming sections of primitives within or across structures. 

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