 |
|
hi,
i have created a graphic surface using %pl, i am unable to attach a printer to that graphics region.
i am aware that it is possible with %`gr by setting a handle to it,but i guess %pl does not have this option.
any help is much appreciated.
thank you. |

If you just wanted to do this occasionally then a quick and nasty way would be to copy the screen to the clipboard (using the Print Screen key on the keyboard) and then paste this into Microsoft Paint.
If no one can think of a better way, I will take a look at the ClearWin+ code sometime next week. |

As a start you could use the following sample in order to put the image on the clipboard as a metafile.
| Code: | WINAPP
INTEGER ctrl,start_cb,winio@
EXTERNAL start_cb
INTEGER N,i
PARAMETER(N=11)
REAL*8 x(N),y(N)
DO i=1,N
x(i)=i-1
y(i)=x(i)**2
ENDDO
ctrl=999
i=winio@('%`pl[x_array]&',400,250,N,x,y,ctrl)
i=winio@('%sc', start_cb)
END
INTEGER FUNCTION start_cb()
INCLUDE <windows.ins>
INTEGER ctrl
ctrl = 999
CALL SIMPLEPLOT_TO_CLIPBOARD@(ctrl)
start_cb = 1
END |
Then it might be possible to copy from the clipboard into a %gr region say, perhaps using play_clipboard_metafile@.

There is another undocumented routine (as well as simpleplot_to_clipboard@). It is the subroutine simpleplot_to_metafile@.
It takes two arguments. An integer handle, corresponding to the value used with the grave accent on %pl, followed by a character variable giving the name of the file. |
