✨ GSET_MARKER_SIZE ✨

okay bestie, we're in the NCAR GRAPHICS section of the manual (that's the 3NCARG vibe, iykyk) and today's main character is gset_marker_size πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

gset_marker_size (Set marker size scale factor) β€” bestie, this one sets the polymarker size scale factor, aka the relative size of the marker. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gset_marker_size(Gdouble marker_size);

look at that signature. so clean. so simple. no cap ✨


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

  • marker_size (Input) β€” a scale factor that controls how big your marker is gonna be. it must be greater than or equal to 0. and here's the tea: since marker_size = 1.0 by default, setting marker_size = 2.0 literally doubles your polymarker size. math is math 🧚

🫢 ACCESS 🫢

to use the GKS C-binding routines, you gotta load the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c libraries. that's the entry fee, bestie, no skipping πŸ’œ
