DESCRIPTION

Purpose

GENERALIZED DRAWING PRIMITIVE -12 creates the annotation elliptical arc element.

C Input Parameters

num_points
The number of points passed in the points parameter.

pointsA pointer to a list num_points long of Ppoint structures containing x and y values in Modelling Coordinates (MC). Ppoint is defined in phigs.h as:

typedef struct {
Pfloatx;/∗ x coordinate ∗/
Pfloaty;/∗ y coordinate ∗/
} Ppoint;

gdp_id
The function identifier for this generalized drawing primitive is PUGDP_ANNOT_ELLP_ARC, which is defined in phigs.h to be -12.

gdp_data
A pointer to a Pgdprec union, ugdp12_datarec, containing the information needed to perform the function specified by gdp_id. Pugdp0012rec is defined in phigs.h as:

typedef struct {
Ppointcenter;/∗ center point ∗/
Pvectormajor;/∗ major axis ∗/
Pvectorminor;/∗ minor axis ∗/
Pfloatst_ang;/∗ start angle ∗/
Pfloatend_ang;/∗ end angle ∗/
} Pugdp0012rec; /∗ annotation elliptical arc ∗/

The center component specifies the center of the annotation elliptical arc. It is a structure containing xand ycoordinates specified in MC. The major component specifies the length and direction of the major axis relative to the center point. The minor component specifies the minor axis. The x and y magnitudes of the major and minor axes of the annotation ellipse are specified in MC. The st_ang component specifies the start angle of the elliptical arc. The end_ang component specifies the end angle of the elliptical arc. The angles are specified in radians in a counter-clockwise direction with the ellipse local positive x axis as the origin.

FORTRAN Input Parameters

NNumber of points passed in the PXA and PYA arrays.

PXAAn array of N real values containing x coordinates in MC.

PYAAn array of N real values containing y coordinates in MC.

PRIMID
The function identifier for this generalized drawing primitive is PUGDPAELLPARC, which is defined in phigs77.h to be -12.

LDRThe dimension of DATREC (returned by the PACK DATA RECORD subroutine).

DATREC
A GDP data record packed by the PACK DATA RECORD subroutine containing the information needed to perform the function specified by PRIMID.

The arguments passed to PACK DATA RECORD when PRIMID = PUGDPAELLPARC should be as follows:

ILThe number of integers = 0.

RLThe number of real values = 8.

RAContains an array of RL real values. Element 1 is the x coordinate of the center of the annotation elliptical arc in MC. Element 2 is the y coordinate of the center of the annotation elliptical arc in MC. Element 3 is the x component of the annotation elliptical arc major axis in MC. Element 4 is the y component of the annotation elliptical arc major axis in MC. Element 5 is the x component of the annotation elliptical arc minor axis in ELC. Element 6 is the y component of the annotation elliptical arc minor axis in ELC. Element 7 is the start angle of the annotation elliptical arc in radians. Element 8 is the end angle of the annotation elliptical arc in radians.

SLThe number of strings = 0.

Execution

An annotation elliptical arc is a curve defined by a center point, a major axis, a minor axis, a start angle, and an end angle. The Ellipse Local Coordinate (ELC) system is located at the center point on the z = 0 plane. The horizontal and vertical axes of CLC are defined by the major and minor axes respectively. The current values of all polyline attributes will be applied to the annotation elliptical arc when it is drawn. Annotation elliptical arc is not affected by the current curve approximation criteria.

The center point of the annotation elliptical arc is specified in MC. The major and minor axes of the annotation elliptical arc are specified in ELC. The start and end angles are specified in radians with the ELC positive xaxis as the origin. At traversal, all transformations affect the center point, but only the workstation transformation affects the other parameters of the annotation elliptical arc. An annotation elliptical arc greater than 360 degrees is drawn as a hollow annotation ellipse.

The array of points passed to this subroutine in addition to the GDP data record is not used by the annotation elliptical arc GDP.

Attributes Applied

The attributes listed below are used to display the GENERALIZED DRAWING PRIMITIVE -12 structure element. The Aspect Source Flags (ASFs) tell where to access the output display attributes. These attributes can come directly from the traversal state list, or they can be accessed indirectly, using the appropriate index in the traversal state list and the corresponding bundled representation in the workstation state list.
