DESCRIPTION¶
This program manages display frames on the user's graphics monitor. Graphics are
displayed in rectangular frames on whatever graphics monitor the user is
currently directing GRASS display output to. These frames are created and
managed with this module. Note that GRASS frame contents
are not
retained when one frame covers another. You cannot shuffle frames from top to
bottom and then back again. They simply define rectangular areas on the screen
where subsequent drawing will occur.
NOTES¶
The coordinates for the
at= option are stated in the form:
bottom,top,left,right. The lower-left corner of the graphics monitor
always is at location 0,0 while the monitor's upper-right corner is always at
100,100 (the values are in percent).
If
at= options are not given during frame correction the user will be
prompted to create the frame using the mouse. Likewise if a frame name is not
given during frame selection, the user will be prompted to select an existing
frame on the display monitor using the mouse.
If the user has created multiple display frames that overlap one another,
whatever the user displays in the active frame will overwrite those portions
of the underlying frame where these frames overlap.
A frame by the name of
full_screen is always present and may be selected
at any time. This may be useful if you would like to de-select all user
defined frames just before taking a screenshot.
