Package

graphics-ports

Signature

set-graphics-port-coordinates port &key left top right bottom

Arguments

port

A graphics port.

left

A real number.

top

A real number.

right

A real number

bottom

A real number.

Description

The generic function set-graphics-port-coordinates modifies the transform of the graphics port port permanently such that the edges of port correspond to the values of the other arguments.

Notes

The transform is part of the port's graphics state. See graphics-state for details of how it is used.

Example

The following code

(set-graphics-port-coordinates port :left -1.0 

                                    :top 1.0 

                                    :right 1.0 

                                    :bottom -1.0) 

changes the coordinates of the port so that the point (0 0) is in the exact center of the port and the edges are a unit distance away, with a right-handed coordinate system.

By default, left and top are 1.
