.SH NAME
Conrec_family_params - Includes a brief description of all Conrec_family
internal parameters.
.SH DESCRIPTION 
No parameter setting functions are available for the Conrec_family utility.
Parameters were set through common blocks CONRE1 and CONRE4.  There
are three versions of the CONREC code.  The normal version is in
the standard NCAR Graphics library.  The other two versions are in
optional libraries one of which is linked when the ncargf77 option
-quick, or -super is declared on the command line.
.sp
The CONREC and EZCNTR entries can be invoked in four different ways to create
contour plots which vary considerably in appearance.  The four variations
include quick, normal, smooth, and super contour lines.  This progression
represents a tradeoff between speed of computation and the appearance of the
contour plots.  These variations are specified through selected command line
options of the ncargf77 command.
.sp
For normal or smooth options the parameter set is:

Definitions of the inclusive set follow:
.sp
.nf
.sp
.IP ISIZEL 12
Size of line labels in Plotter Address Units (PAUs).
0 = 8 PAUs,  1 = 12 PAUs, 2 = 16 PAUs, 3 = 24 PAUs,
> 3 means use this number of PAUs.  [Default = 1]

.IP ISIZEM 12
Size of labels for minimums and maximums, as per
the size definitions given for ISIZEL.
[Default = 2]

.IP ISIZEP 12
Size of labels for data point values as per the
size definitions given for ISIZEL.  [Default = 0]

.IP NLA 12
Approximate number of contour levels when
internally generated.  [Default = 16]

.IP NLM 12
Maximum number of contour levels.  If this is to be
increased, the dimensions of CL and RWORK in conrec.f
must be increased by the same amount.  [Default = 40]

.IP XLT 12
Left hand edge of the plot (0.0 is the left edge of
the frame and 1.0 is the right edge of the frame.)
[Default = .05]

.IP YBT 12
Bottom edge of the plot (0.0 is the bottom of the
frame and 1.0 is the top of the frame.)
[Default = .05]

.IP SIDE 12
Length of longer edge of plot (see also EXT).
[Default = .90]

.IP NREP 12
Number of repetitions of the dash pattern between
line labels.  [Default = 6]

.IP NCRT 12
Number of CRT units per element (bit) in the dash
pattern.  [Default = 4]

.IP ILAB 12
Flag to control the drawing of line labels.

- ILAB non-zero means label the lines.

- ILAB = 0 means do not label the lines.

[Default = 1]

.IP NULBUL 12
Number of unlabeled lines between labeled lines.
For example, when NULBLL = 3, every fourth level
is labeled.  [Default = 3]

.IP IOFFD 12
Flag to control normalization of label numbers.

- IOFFD = 0 means include decimal point when
  possible (do not normalize unless required).

- IOFFD non-zero means normalize all label
  numbers and output a scale factor in the
  message below the graph.  [Default = 0]

.IP EXT 12
Lengths of the sides of the plot are proportional
to M and N (when CONREC sets the window and viewport).
In extreme cases, when MIN(M,N)/MAX(M,N) is less
than EXT, Conrec produces a square plot.
[Default = .25]

.IP IOFFP 12
Flag to control special value feature.

- IOFFP = 0 means the special value feature is
  not in use.

- IOFFP non-zero means the special value feature
  is in use.  (SPVAL is set to the special value.)
  Contour lines will then be omitted from any cell
  with any corner equal to the special value.

[Default = 0]

.IP SPVAL 12
Contains the special value when IOFFP is non-zero.
[Default = 0.]

.IP IOFFM 12
Flag to control the message below the plot.

- IOFFM = 0  if the message is to be plotted.

- IOFFM non-zero if the message is to be omitted.

[Default = 0]

.IP ISOLID 12
Dash pattern for non-negative contour lines.
[Default = 1023]
