GraphicStyle class resource descriptions

gsClipOn

NOT YET IMPLEMENTED

Default: True

gsLineDashPattern

This resource of type NhlTDashIndex specifies the dash pattern for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0

gsLineDashSegLenF

This resource specifies the length of each segment of the dash pattern used for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0.15

gsLineColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex specifies the color of line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Foreground

gsLineThicknessF

This resource specifies the thickness of line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. The value acts as a multiplier of a (device-dependent) unit thickness.

Default: 1.0

gsLineLabelString

This resource specifies the string used as the line label for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: <dynamic>

gsLineLabelFont

This resource of type NhlTFont specifies the line label font for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0

gsLineLabelFontColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex specifies the line label color for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Foreground

gsLineLabelFontHeightF

This resource specifies the line label font height for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0.0125

gsLineLabelFontAspectF

This resource specifies the line label font aspect ratio for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 1.3125

gsLineLabelFontThicknessF

This resource specifies the line label font thickness for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. The value acts as a multiplier of a (device-dependent) unit thickness.

Default: 1.0

gsLineLabelFontQuality

This resource of type NhlTFontQuality specifies the quality of the line label font for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: High

gsLineLabelConstantSpacingF

Normally when gsLineLabelFontQuality is set to High, line labels for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object are rendered using proportional spacing. Setting the gsLineLabelConstantSpacingF to a value greater than 0.0 overrides this behavior. Instead, the distance from the start of one character to the next is computed by multiplying a single standard character width by the value of gsLineLabelConstantSpacingF. When gsLineLabelConstantSpacingF has a value between 0.0 and 1.0, characters will overlap. A value of 1.0 implies, on average, no space between characters, while values increasing from 1.0 cause the space between characters to grow. This parameter is ignored when gsLineLabelFontQuality is not High. Values less than 0.0 result in an error and are replaced with the default value.

Default: 0.0

gsLineLabelFuncCode

This resource of type NhlTCharacter sets the line label function code used for line primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: :

gsFillIndex

This resource of type NhlTFillIndex sets the fill pattern used for fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0

gsFillColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex sets the color used for fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Foreground

gsFillBackgroundColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex sets the color used as the background of fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Transparent

gsFillScaleF

This resource specifies the fill pattern scaling factor for fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 1.0

gsFillLineThicknessF

This resource specifies the thickness of lines used within the fill patterns of fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 1.0

gsEdgesOn

If this boolean resource is set True, fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object are rendered with a line drawn around all visible edges.

Default: False

gsEdgeDashPattern

This resource of type NhlTDashIndex specifies the dash pattern for the edges of fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0

gsEdgeThicknessF

This resource specifies the thickness of the edges of fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. The value acts as a multiplier of a (device-dependent) unit thickness.

Default: 1.0

gsEdgeDashSegLenF

This resource specifies the length of each segment of the dash pattern used for the edges of fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: .15

gsEdgeColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex specifies the color used for the edges of fill primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Foreground

gsMarkerIndex

This resource of type NhlTMarkerIndex specifies the marker glyph for marker primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: "asterisk"

gsMarkerColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex specifies the color of marker primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Foreground

gsMarkerSizeF

This resource specifies the NDC size of marker primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0.007

gsMarkerThicknessF

This resource specifies the thickness of the lines used to render marker primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. The value acts as a multiplier of a (device-dependent) unit thickness.

Default: 1.0

gsTextAngleF

This resource specifies the rotation angle around the justification point of text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0.0

gsFont

This resource specifies the font used to render text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: pwritx

gsTextJustification

This resource of type NhlJustification sets the justification point for text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: CenterCenter

gsFontQuality

This resource of type NhlFontQuality determines the quality of the font used to render text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. There are three choices:

High

Draw characters using any of the stoked or filled fonts.

Medium

Draw characters using a 94-character stroked font that is simpler than the High quality fonts, resulting in somewhat smaller metafiles. The gsFont resource is ignored.

Low

The characters are output as a string into the metafile. The quality of the output therefore depends on the fonts available to the metafile translator. When NCAR Graphics translators are used, the font quality is similar to that of Medium text. The gsFont resource is ignored.

Default: High

gsFontColor

This resource of type NhlTColorIndex specifies the color of text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: Foreground

gsFontHeightF

This resource specifies the font height for text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 0.015

gsFontAspectF

This resource specifies the font aspect ratio for text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.

Default: 1.3125

gsFontThicknessF

This resource specifies the font thickness for text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. The value acts as a multiplier of a (device-dependent) unit thickness.

Default: 1.0

gsTextConstantSpacingF

Normally when gsFontQuality is set to High, text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object are rendered using proportional spacing. Setting the gsTextConstantSpacingF to a value greater than 0.0 overrides this behavior. Instead, the distance from the start of one character to the next is computed by multiplying a single standard character width by the value of gsTextConstantSpacingF. When gsTextConstantSpacingF has a value between 0.0 and 1.0, characters will overlap. A value of 1.0 implies, on average, no space between characters, while values increasing from 1.0 cause the space between characters to grow. This parameter is ignored when gsFontQuality is not High. Values less than 0.0 result in an error and are replaced with the default value.

Default: 0.0

gsTextDirection

This resource of type NhlTextDirection specifies the direction of the text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object. There are two choices:

Down

Each character is placed below the previous character in the text string.

Across

Each character is placed to the right of the previous character in the text string.

These descriptions apply before any rotation due to gsTextAngleF is applied to the text primitive.

Default: Across

gsTextFuncCode

This resource of type NhlTCharacter specifies the function code used for text primitives associated with the GraphicStyle object.
