✨ GSMKSC ✨ (a.k.a. Set Marker Size Scale Factor, from the NCAR Graphics fam 💖)

okay bestie, gather round, because this one is so simple it's almost criminal, and yet it makes your markers absolutely ate 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

GSMKSC — the "Set marker size scale factor" routine. She sets the polymarker size scale factor, which is just a fancy way of saying: the relative size of the marker. That's it. That's the whole job. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL GSMKSC (MSZSF)

🦋 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 🦋

if you're living that C life instead, no worries, she's got you 🫶

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gset_marker_size(Gdouble marker_size);

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

• MSZSF — (Real, Input) — the scale factor that controls how big your marker gets. It must be greater than or equal to 0. Like, do not come in here with a negative marker size, she will not be entertaining that. 🚫

*MSZSF = 1.0**</purple> by default — that's the vibe you get if you say nothing at all. So if you set MSZSF = 2.0`, you literally *double the polymarker size. Iconic. Math. Periodt. ✨

🌈 ACCESS 🌈

To use GKS routines, you gotta load the NCAR GKS-0A library ncarg_gks. Load her up or nothing happens, fr fr. 📚
