Option

Definition

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

name

Identifies a previously specified graphic that is currently subject to the HOLD

 

 

parameter of the command that specifies it. (Refer to the IMAGE DJDE

 

 

description, later in this chapter.)

 

 

 

 

vpos

vertical position.

 

 

Specifies the vertical position of the top edge of the graphic, relative to 0,0 on

 

 

the current physical page

 

 

 

 

hpos

horizontal position

 

 

Specifies the horizontal position of the left edge of the graphic relative to 0,0 on

 

 

the current physical page. The form of the specification (UN, CM, IN, DOTS, or

 

 

XDOTS) is the same as for vpos.

 

 

 

 

n/d

numerator / denominator

 

 

Specifies the reference scale factor. Each DJDE, n and d, must be an integer in

 

 

the range of 1 to 8, thereby allowing a reference scale factor in the range of 1/8

 

 

to 8. The reference scale factor is multiplied.

 

 

 

 

unit

Unit of measure for the vertical and horizontal positions. Options are:

 

 

CM (centimeters)

 

 

IN (inches)

 

 

DOTS

 

 

XDOTS

 

 

• UN (user defined units).

 

 

 

If UN is specified, the user defined positioning unit must previously be

 

 

 

defined by the UNITS parameter of the OUTPUT command in the current

 

 

 

JDE or JDL.

 

 

NOTE: IN and CM are each specified as a decimal number with up to three

 

 

digits to the right of the decimal point.

 

 

The default unit is IN.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ALTER DJDE: point to note

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ALTER maintains the GRAPHICS HOLD parameter in effect but

 

 

 

also specifies a new set of imaging parameters for the current

 

 

 

and subsequent pages.

 

 

 

Examples of ALTER DJDE
