get_line_approx (Operator)
get_line_approx
— Get the current approximation error for contour display.
Warning
get_line_approx
is obsolete and is only provided for
reasons of backward compatibility.
Signature
get_line_approx( : : WindowHandle : Approximation)
Description
get_line_approx
returns a parameter that controls the
approximation error for region contour display in the
window. It is used by the operator
disp_region
. Approximation
controls the polygon
approximation for contour display ( 0 <=> no approximation). Approximation
is only
important for displaying the contour of objects, especially if a line
style was set with set_line_style
.
Execution Information
- Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
- Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
- Processed without parallelization.
Parameters
WindowHandle
(input_control) window →
(handle)
Window handle.
Approximation
(output_control) string →
(integer)
Current approximation error for contour display.
Result
get_line_approx
returns 2 (
H_MSG_TRUE)
if the window is valid.
Otherwise an exception is raised.
