NAME

       gset_char_expan (Set character expansion factor) - sets the width to height ratio of text.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/gks.h>

       void gset_char_expan(Gdouble char_expan);

DESCRIPTION

       char_expan  (Input)  -  Specifies  a deviation of the width to height ratio for characters
                   drawn using the GTX output primitive.  char_expan  of  10.0  would  specify  a
                   character that is 10 times as wide as normal.  char_expan of 0.1 would request
                   characters that are 1/10th as wide as normal.  The  character  height  remains
                   unchanged. char_expan > 0.  By default char_expan = 1.0

ACCESS

       To use the GKS C-binding routines, load the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c libraries.
