NAME

       MAPACI - Normally used to pick colors for the areas created by the boundary lines added to
       an area map by a call to MAPBLA.  Note that this function should not be used to select
       color indices for areas defined by the new map database "Earth..1", which was created in
       1998; for that purpose, use EZMAPB functions instead (in particular, MPISCI).

SYNOPSIS

       ICIR=MAPACI(IAID)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       int c_mapaci (int iaid)

DESCRIPTION

       IAID        (an input expression of type INTEGER) is an area identifier for one of the
                   areas defined by the set of boundary lines added to an area map by a call to
                   MAPBLA.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument description is the same as the FORTRAN argument description.

USAGE

       Executing the statement "ICIR=MAPACI(IAID)" gives ICIR a value between 1 and 7, inclusive,
       that may be used to select a color index for the area whose area identifier is IAID.  It
       is guaranteed that MAPACI will not return the same value for adjacent areas; this fact can
       be used to ensure that adjacent areas will have different colors.

       Note that it is the responsibility of the user to define the colors associated with color
       indices used; this is done by calling the GKS routine GSCR.

EXAMPLES

       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant example: eezmpa.

ACCESS

       To use MAPACI or c_mapaci, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c,
       preferably in that order.
