rpatch(3G)

NAME
     rpatch - draws a rational surface patch

FORTRAN 77 SPECIFICATION
     subroutine rpatch(geomx, geomy, geomz, geomw)
     real geomx(4,4), geomy(4,4), geomz(4,4), geomw(4,4)

PARAMETERS
     geomx   expects a 4x4 matrix containing the x coordinates of the 16
             control points of the patch.

     geomy   expects a 4x4 matrix containing the y coordinates of the 16
             control points of the patch.

     geomz   expects a 4x4 matrix containing the z coordinates of the 16
             control points of the patch.

     geomw   expects a 4x4 matrix containing the w coordinates of the 16
             control points of the patch.

DESCRIPTION
     rpatch draws a rational surface patch using the current patchb, patchp,
     and patchc which are defined earlier.  The control points geomx, geomy,
     geomz geomw determine the shape of the patch.

     The patch is drawn as a web of curve segments.  Each curve segment is
     approximated by a sequence of straight lines.  All lines use the current
     linestyle, which is reset prior to the first line of each curve segment,
     and continues through subsequent lines in each curve segment.  Other line
     modes, including depthcueing, line width, and line antialiasing, also
     apply to the lines generated by patch.
