DoTextPrecision(3D)

NAME
DoTextPrecision - Create a text precision primitive attribute object

SYNOPSIS
C:
DtObject DoTextPrecision(precision)
DtTextPrecision precision;

FORTRAN:
INTEGER*4 DOTPR(PRECIS)
INTEGER*4 PRECIS

DESCRIPTION
DoTextPrecision creates a text precision primitive attribute object. The parameter precision specifies the accuracy with which text is drawn for subsequently executed text primitive objects. Possible values are:

DcStringPrecision <DCSTRP>
    The attributes used to render text objects are text font, text height, and text expansion factor. The text is clipped in a device-dependent manner.

DcCharacterPrecision <DCCHRP>
    The attributes used to render text objects are text font, text height, text expansion factor, text up vector, text space, text path and text alignment. The text is clipped, at the least, on a character-by-character basis.

DcStrokePrecision <DCSTKP>
    All text attributes are applied exactly and, if applicable, lighting and shading calculations are also performed on the text primitive object.

DEFAULTS
The default DoTextPrecision is DcStrokePrecision <DCSTKP>.
