ncl_gset_char_space: sets the character spacing for text.
NAME
gset_char_space (Set character spacing) - sets the character spacing for text.SYNOPSIS
#include <ncarg/gks.h>void gset_char_space(Gdouble char_space);
DESCRIPTION
- char_space
-
(Input) -
Specifies how much additional white
space should be inserted between
characters drawn using the gtext
output primitive. char_space is specified
as a fraction of the character
height.
A character spacing of zero positions the character body of each successive character contiguously with enough white space between them to produce pleasing normal spacing. A positive value inserts extra space between successive characters. A negative value causes successive characters to overlap. By default char_space = 0.0.
