|
|
|
|
|
| DECGRA | Set Raster Attributes | " (2/2) | Defines the pixel aspect ratio. |
|
|
|
| Followed by parameters |
|
|
|
| Pn1 ; Pn2 ; Pn3 ; Pn4 |
|
|
|
| Pn1 : Pixel aspect ratio numerator |
|
|
|
| Pn2 : Pixel aspect ratio denominator |
|
|
|
| Pn3 and Pn4 : ignored |
| DECGRI | Graphics Repeat | ! (2/1) | Followed by a numeric value Pn and a |
|
| Introducer |
| sixel data to be repeated Pn times. |
| DECGCR | Graphics Carriage | $ (2/4) | Returns active position to graphics |
|
| Return |
| left margin. |
| DECGNL | Graphics Next Line | – (2/13) | Returns active position to graphics |
|
|
|
| left margin and increments to next |
|
|
|
| graphics line. |
| DECGCI | Graphics Color | # (2/3) | Assigns a color to a color number or |
|
| Introducer |
| selects a predefined color number. |
|
|
|
| Followed by parameters |
|
|
|
| Pc ; Pu ; Px ; Py ; Pz |
|
|
|
| Pc : Color number (0 - 255) |
|
|
|
| Pu : Universal coordinate system |
|
|
|
| selector : 1 = HLS |
|
|
|
| 2 = RGB |
|
|
|
| Px , Py , Pz : color coordinates |
|
| Parameter Characters | 0 - 9 | Numeric parameters - used on the |
|
|
| (3/0 - 3/9) | above control codes |
|
| Parameter Separator | ; (3/11) | Separates parameters - used on the |
|
|
|
| above control codes |
|
| Sixel Data | (3/15 - 7/14) | Sixel printable characters. |
|
|
|
| The printer substracts the offset (3F |
|
|
|
| hexadecimal) from the received code, |
|
|
|
| assigning each of the remaining low- |
|
|
|
| order six bits to a grid position : |
|
|
|
| LSB = top pixel |
|
|
|
| MSB = bottom pixel |
|
|
|
| Examples : |
|
|
|
| ? (3/15) : blank character |
|
|
|
| @ (4/0) : print only top pixel |
|
|
|
| A (4/1) : print |
|
|
|
| ~ (7/14) : print one full column |
|
