💖 display_graphical(1) 💖 — GRASS GIS User's Manual 🌸

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me put you ON 🫶 this page is literally the graphical index of GRASS GIS modules — the full roster of every display module GRASS has to offer, no gatekeeping, no cap. Go to display introduction | topics and get comfy, because there's a lot of icons here and every single one of them ate 💅

✨ Display modules ✨

  • d.background — fills the graphics display frame with a color you pick. blank canvas energy 🎨
  • d.barscale — drops a barscale onto the graphics monitor. so you know how far you're looking, iconic 📏
  • d.colorlist — spits out a list of every display color available. the whole palette, served on a platter 🌈
  • d.colortable — shows the color table that belongs to a raster map layer. matching set, fr fr 🎀
  • d.correlate — prints a graph of the correlation between raster maps (in pairs, like a buddy system) 💞
  • d.erase — wipes the contents of the active graphics display frame using a user-defined color. clean slate, we love a reset 🧼
  • d.font — selects the font that text will be displayed in on your graphics monitor. choose your aesthetic wisely ✍️
  • d.fontlist — lists the available fonts. font shopping, but make it terminal 🔤
  • d.frame — manages display frames on your graphics monitor. it's giving interior design for your screen 🖼️
  • d.geodesic — displays a geodesic line, tracing the shortest distance between two geographic points along a great circle, in a longitude/latitude data set. globe-brain behavior 🌍
  • d.graph — the program for generating and displaying simple graphics on the display monitor. artsy ✨
  • d.grid — overlays a user-specified grid in the active display frame on the graphics monitor. everything in its right place 📐
  • d.his — displays the result of combining hue, intensity, and saturation (HIS) values from user-specified input raster map layers. color theory but it's GIS 🌸
  • d.histogram — displays a histogram as a pie or bar chart for a user-specified raster map. data, but cute 🥧
  • d.info — displays information about the active display monitor. a little wellness check for your monitor 🩺
  • d.labels — displays text labels (created with v.label) to the active frame on the graphics monitor. annotate it, bestie 🏷️
  • d.legend — displays a legend for a 2D or 3D raster map in the active frame of the graphics monitor. context is everything 🔑
  • d.legend.vect — displays a vector legend in the active graphics frame. vector girlies get a legend too 🎉
  • d.linegraph — generates and displays simple line graphs in the active graphics monitor display frame. plot it, slay 📈
  • d.mon — controls graphics display monitors straight from the command line. command line main character energy 👑
  • d.northarrow — displays a north arrow on the graphics monitor. so you never lose your way 🧭
  • d.out.file — saves the contents of the active display monitor to a graphics file. screenshot but official 📸
  • d.path — finds the shortest path for the selected starting and ending node. the efficient route, we love her 🛣️
  • d.polar — draws a polar diagram of an angle map such as aspect or flow directions. circular queen 🌀
  • d.profile — plots the profile of a transect. slice it and see 📊
  • d.rast.arrow — draws arrows representing cell aspect direction for a raster map containing aspect data. pointy and purposeful ➡️
  • d.rast.edit — edits cell values in a raster map. hands-on, do not be shy 🖊️
  • d.rast — displays a user-specified raster map in the active graphics frame. the classic, the blueprint, the moment 🗺️
  • d.rast.leg — displays a raster map and its legend on a graphics window. two for one, we're obsessed 🎁
  • d.rast.num — overlays cell category values on a raster map displayed in the active graphics frame. numbers on top of vibes 🔢
  • d.redraw — redraws the content of the currently selected monitor. refresh, refresh, refresh 🔄
  • d.rgb — displays three user-specified raster maps as red, green, and blue overlays in the active graphics frame. RGB trio, no notes 💅
  • d.rhumbline — displays the rhumbline joining two longitude/latitude coordinates. the other kind of line, iykyk 🧵
  • d.shade — drapes a color raster over a shaded relief or aspect map. glow-up via shading ✨
  • d.text — draws text in the active display frame on the graphics monitor using the current font. say it with text 💬
  • d.title — creates a TITLE for a raster map in a form suitable for display with d.text. naming your work, self-care 🏆
  • d.to.rast — saves the contents of the active display monitor to a raster map. save it, don't lose it 💾
  • d.vect.chart — displays charts of vector data in the active frame on the graphics monitor. vector charts, so fetch 📉
  • d.vect — displays a user-specified vector map in the active graphics frame. vectors, but make it visible 🌟
  • d.vect.thematic — displays a thematic vector map in the active graphics frame. theme it up, periodt 🎨
  • d.what.rast — lets you interactively query raster map layers at locations you select. poke it and it answers 🔍
  • d.what.vect — lets you interactively query vector map layers at locations you select. same energy, vector edition 🔎
  • d.where — identifies the geographic coordinates associated with point locations given in display coordinates. where is it? answered 📍
