resetl(3G)

resetl - controls the continuity of linestyles

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.19. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     resetl - controls the continuity of linestyles

FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION
     subroutine resetl(b)
     logical b

PARAMETERS
     b   expects either .TRUE. or .FALSE..

         .TRUE. causes the linestyle to be reset at the beginning of each line
         segment.

         .FALSE. causes the linestyle to be continued across the segments of a
         line.

DESCRIPTION
     resetl enables or disable linestyle reset mode.  This mode affects the
     reinitialization of the linestyle pattern between line segments.  If it
     is enabled (the default), it causes the stippling of each segment of a
     line to start at the beginning of the linestyle pattern.  If it is
     disabled, the linestyle is not reset between segments, and the stippling
     of one segment continues from where it left off at the end of the
     previous segment.

     Changing resetl from .FALSE. to .TRUE.  in the middle of a line causes
     the linestyle to be reset.  If resetl is .FALSE. when setlin is called,
     the linestyle does not change until resetl(.TRUE.) is issued.
     resetl(.TRUE.) also initializes the lsrepe factor to 1.

NOTES
     The setting of resetl is ignored for Graphics Library primitives such as
     arcs, circles, and curves, even though they are currently implemented
     using lines.

     This routine only functions on IRIS-4D B and G models, and therefore we
     advise against its use in new development.
