setvaluator()  —  Silicon Graphics

NAME

setvaluator − assigns an initial value to a valuator

SPECIFICATION

C
setvaluator(v, init, min, max)
Device v;
short init, min, max;

FORTRAN
subroutine setval(v, init, min, max)
integer*4 v, init, min, max

Pascal
procedure setvaluator(v: Device; init, min, max: Short);

DESCRIPTION

setvaluator assigns an initial value init to a valuator.  min and max are the lower and upper bounds for the values the device can assume. 

Some devices, such as tablets, report values fixed to a grid.  In this case, the device defines an initial position and init is ignored.
