.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
These two procedures take as argument a specification of distance on
|
||
|
the screen (\fIstring\fR) and compute the corresponding distance
|
||
|
either in integer pixels or floating-point millimeters.
|
||
|
In either case, \fIstring\fR specifies a screen distance as a
|
||
|
floating-point number followed by one of the following characters
|
||
|
that indicates units:
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
<none>
|
||
|
The number specifies a distance in pixels.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fBc\fR
|
||
|
The number specifies a distance in centimeters on the screen.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fBi\fR
|
||
|
The number specifies a distance in inches on the screen.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fBm\fR
|
||
|
The number specifies a distance in millimeters on the screen.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fBp\fR
|
||
|
The number specifies a distance in printer's points (1/72 inch)
|
||
|
on the screen.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
\fBTk_GetPixels\fR converts \fIstring\fR to the nearest even
|
||
|
number of pixels and stores that value at \fI*intPtr\fR.
|
||
|
\fBTk_GetScreenMM\fR converts \fIstring\fR to millimeters and
|
||
|
stores the double-precision floating-point result at \fI*doublePtr\fR.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Both procedures return \fBTCL_OK\fR under normal circumstances.
|
||
|
If an error occurs (e.g. \fIstring\fR contains a number followed
|
||
|
by a character that isn't one of the ones above) then
|
||
|
\fBTCL_ERROR\fR is returned and an error message is left
|
||
|
in \fIinterp->result\fR.
