minsize()  —  Silicon Graphics

NAME

minsize - specifies a minimum size for a graphics port in the window manager

SPECIFICATION

C
minsize(x, y)
long x, y;

FORTRAN
subroutine minsiz(x, y)
integer*4 x, y

Pascal
procedure minsize(x, y: longint);

DESCRIPTION

minsize specifies a minimum size for a graphics port.  It is called at the beginning of a graphics program that will be run with the window manager, and takes effect when getport is called.  minsize may also be called in conjuction with winconstraints to modify the enforced minimum size after the port has been created.  The default minimum size is 40 pixels wide and 30 pixels high.  The port can be reshaped by the user, but the window manager does not allow it to become smaller than this minimum size.  minsize has no effect if getport is not called or if the program is not being run with the window manager.
