Keywords:

REPRESENTATION PPOINTS LENGTH NUMBERS

Description:

P-point representation may be set to ON or OFF. The default setting is PPOINTS OFF, although p-points will be shown automatically as part of an identification operation.

When p-points are on, they are drawn as small arrows with a cross at the p-point position and with the arrow indicating the p-point direction. The size of the arrow is controlled by the LENGTH option. P-point numbers may also be displayed, as controlled by the NUMBERS option.

As with changes to other representation settings, the graphics display is not updated instantly. Use the REPResentation UPDATE command to make changes to the display of p-points visible.

Examples:

REPR PPOINTS ON

Sets the p-point representation to ON

REPR PPOINTS LENGTH 5

Sets size of p-point arrows

REPR PPOINTS NUMB ON

Shows p-point numbers
