gStartTextBlock

Syntax

[C/C++:]
void gStartTextBlock(float xbeg, float ybeg);
[F90:]
subroutine gStartTextBlock(xbeg, ybeg)
real, intent(in) :: xbeg,ybeg

Arguments

xbeg,ybeg
The absolute coordinates of the start of a text block

Description

The routine gStartTextBlock() moves the current drawing position to the specified coordinate and indicates the start of a text block.

If character transformations are switched off the position is specified in picture coordinates. If character transformation is switched on (using gSetCharTransformMode()) the position is specified in the current units and with respect to the current axes.

Subsequent calls to gMoveToNextLine() or use of the *N escape sequence will cause a move to the next line within the text block.
