PLSDIORI(3plplot)

✨ NAME ✨

Bestie, welcome to PLSDIORI(3plplot) — part of the PLplot API ✨. This one is plsdiori, and it sets plot orientation 💅.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

plsdiori(rot)

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here’s the vibe: plsdiori sets the plot orientation parameter, and that parameter gets multiplied by 90 degrees to obtain the angle of rotation ✨.

Now, arbitrary rotation parameters like 0.2 — which corresponds to 18 degrees — are totally possible 🙈. But the usual values for the rotation parameter are 0., 1., 2., and 3., and those correspond to 0 degrees (landscape mode), 90 degrees (portrait mode), 180 degrees (seascape mode), and 270 degrees (upside-down mode) 👑.

If plsdiori(3plplot) is not called, the default value of rot is 0.

⚠️ N.B. aspect ratio is unaffected by calls to plsdiori(3plplot). So you will probably want to change the aspect ratio to a value suitable for the plot orientation using a call to plsdidev(3plplot) or the command-line options -a or -freeaspect. For more documentation of those options, see the PLplot documentation. Such command-line options can be set internally using plsetopt(3plplot) or set directly using the command line and parsed using a call to plparseopts(3plplot).

Redacted form: plsdiori(rot)

This function is not used in any examples. Literally none, bestie 😭.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rot (PLFLT(3plplot), input) — the plot orientation parameter 🎀.
