tdgtrs(3NCARG)


NAME

   TDGTRS - Get the values defining a selected rendering style, which
   affects the appearance of triangles drawn by a call to the routine
   TDDTRI.

SYNOPSIS

   CALL TDGTRS (IRST, IFC1, IFC2, IFC3, IFC4, ILC1, ILC2, ILTD, USTP,
   VSTP, WSTP)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

   #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

   void c_tdgtrs(int irst, int *ifc1, int *ifc2, int *ifc3, int *ifc4, int
   *ilc1, int *ilc2, int *iltd, float *ustp, float *vstp, float *wstp)

DESCRIPTION

   The arguments of TDGTRS are as follows:

   IRST    (an input expression of type INTEGER) - the index of the
           particular rendering style which is to be retrieved.

   IFC1 and IFC2
           (input expressions of type INTEGER) - color indices specifying
           a range of colors to be used for the "bottom" side of a surface
           (where function values are less than the value on the surface).
           If IFC1 is negative, filling of triangles seen from the
           "bottom" is turned off. If IFC1 is zero or greater, but IFC2 is
           less than or equal to it, the color with index IFC1 is used. If
           IFC1 is zero or greater and IFC2 is greater than IFC1, then a
           range of color indices is specified; colors near the beginning
           of that range are used for triangles that are nearly
           perpendicular to the line of sight, while colors near the end
           of that range are used for triangles more nearly parallel to
           the line of sight. (Normally, one should make triangles
           perpendicular to the line of sight lighter than those parallel
           to the line of sight.)

   IFC3 and IFC4
           (input expressions of type INTEGER) - color indices specifying
           a range of colors to be used for the "top" side of a surface
           (where function values are greater than the value on the
           surface). If IFC3 is negative, filling of triangles seen from
           the "top" is turned off. If IFC3 is zero or greater, but IFC4
           is less than or equal to it, the color with index IFC3 is used.
           If IFC3 is zero or greater and IFC4 is greater than IFC3, then
           a range of color indices is specified; colors near the
           beginning of that range are used for triangles that are nearly
           perpendicular to the line of sight, while colors near the end
           of that range are used for triangles more nearly parallel to
           the line of sight. (Normally, one should make triangles
           perpendicular to the line of sight lighter than those parallel
           to the line of sight.)

   ILC1    (an input expression of type INTEGER) - the color index
           specifying a color to be used for lines drawn on the "bottom"
           side of a surface.  If ILC1 is negative, the drawing of these
           lines is turned off.

   ILC2    (an input expression of type INTEGER) - the color index
           specifying a color to be used for lines drawn on the "top" side
           of a surface.  If ILC2 is negative, the drawing of these lines
           is turned off.

   ILTD    (an input expression of type INTEGER) - a flag, which, if set
           non-zero, turns on the drawing of the edges of the individual
           triangles into which surfaces have been decomposed.

   USTP, VSTP, and WSTP
           (input expressions of type REAL) - the distances between slices
           in the U, V, and W directions, respectively. If a given value
           is zero, the associated slice lines are not drawn.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

   The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN
   argument descriptions.

ACCESS

   To use TDGTRS or c_tdgtrs, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg,
   ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order.

Personal Opportunity - Free software gives you access to billions of dollars of software at no cost. Use this software for your business, personal use or to develop a profitable skill. Access to source code provides access to a level of capabilities/information that companies protect though copyrights. Open source is a core component of the Internet and it is available to you. Leverage the billions of dollars in resources and capabilities to build a career, establish a business or change the world. The potential is endless for those who understand the opportunity.

Business Opportunity - Goldman Sachs, IBM and countless large corporations are leveraging open source to reduce costs, develop products and increase their bottom lines. Learn what these companies know about open source and how open source can give you the advantage.



Free Software


Free Software provides computer programs and capabilities at no cost but more importantly, it provides the freedom to run, edit, contribute to, and share the software. The importance of free software is a matter of access, not price. Software at no cost is a benefit but ownership rights to the software and source code is far more significant.

Free Office Software - The Libre Office suite provides top desktop productivity tools for free. This includes, a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation engine, drawing and flowcharting, database and math applications. Libre Office is available for Linux or Windows.



Free Books


The Free Books Library is a collection of thousands of the most popular public domain books in an online readable format. The collection includes great classical literature and more recent works where the U.S. copyright has expired. These books are yours to read and use without restrictions.

Source Code - Want to change a program or know how it works? Open Source provides the source code for its programs so that anyone can use, modify or learn how to write those programs themselves. Visit the GNU source code repositories to download the source.



Education


Study at Harvard, Stanford or MIT - Open edX provides free online courses from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, UC Berkeley and other top Universities. Hundreds of courses for almost all major subjects and course levels. Open edx also offers some paid courses and selected certifications.

Linux Manual Pages - A man or manual page is a form of software documentation found on Linux/Unix operating systems. Topics covered include computer programs (including library and system calls), formal standards and conventions, and even abstract concepts.
