PLGFONT(3plplot)						    PLplot API							  PLGFONT(3plplot)

NAME

       plgfont - Get family, style and weight of the current font

SYNOPSIS

       plgfont(p_family, p_style, p_weight)

DESCRIPTION

       Gets information about current font.  See the PLplot documentation for more information on font selection.

       Redacted form: plgfont(p_family, p_style, p_weight)

       This function is used in example 23.

ARGUMENTS

       p_family (PLINT *, output)
	      Pointer  to  variable  with  the	current font family. The available values are given by the PL_FCI_* constants in plplot.h. Current
	      options are PL_FCI_SANS, PL_FCI_SERIF, PL_FCI_MONO, PL_FCI_SCRIPT and PL_FCI_SYMBOL. If p_family is NULL then the font family is not
	      returned.

       p_style (PLINT *, output)
	      Pointer  to  variable  with  the	current  font style. The available values are given by the PL_FCI_* constants in plplot.h. Current
	      options are PL_FCI_UPRIGHT, PL_FCI_ITALIC  and PL_FCI_OBLIQUE. If p_style is NULL then the font style is not returned.

       p_weight (PLINT *, output)
	      Pointer to variable with the current font weight. The available values are given by the  PL_FCI_*  constants  in	plplot.h.  Current
	      options are PL_FCI_MEDIUM and PL_FCI_BOLD. If p_weight is NULL then the font weight is not returned.

NAME

       plstring3 - Plot a glyph at the specified 3D points

SYNOPSIS

       plstring3(n, x, y, z, string)

DESCRIPTION

       Plot  a glyph at the specified 3D points. (Supersedes plpoin3(3plplot) because many[!] more glyphs are accessible with plstring3(3plplot).)
       Set up the call to this function similar to what is done for plline3(3plplot). The glyph is specified with a PLplot user string.  Note that
       the  user string is not actually limited to one glyph so it is possible (but not normally useful) to plot more than one glyph at the speci-
       fied points with this function.	As with plmtex(3plplot) and plptex(3plplot), the user string can contain  FCI  escapes	to  determine  the
       font, UTF-8 code to determine the glyph or else PLplot escapes for Hershey or unicode text to determine the glyph.

       Redacted form: plstring3(x, y, z, string)

       This function is used in example 18.

ARGUMENTS

       n (PLINT, input)
	      Number of points in the x, y, and z arrays.

       x (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to an array with X coordinates of points.

       y (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to an array with Y coordinates of points.

       z (PLFLT *, input)
	      Pointer to an array with Z coordinates of points.

       string (const char *, input)
	      PLplot user string corresponding to the glyph to be plotted at each of the n points.
