NAME

       gset_text_path  (Set text path) - sets the text paths or directions in which text is to be
       drawn.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/gks.h>

       void gset_text_path(Gtext_path text_path);

DESCRIPTION

       text_path  (Input) Gives the direction in  which  a  character  string  is  to  be  drawn.
                  Options are:

                  GPATH_RIGHT
                     Draw  successive characters in the string such that character n+l appears to
                     the right of character n. This is text path "right" and is the default.

                  GPATH_LEFT
                     Draw character n+1 to the left of character n.  This is text path "left".

                  GPATH_UP
                     Draw character n+1 above character n.  This is text path "up".

                  GPATH_DOWN
                     Draw character n+1 below character n.  This is text path "down".

                  The right, left, up, and down directions  are  relative  to  the  character  up
                  vector.  The  right  text  path  direction  is  perpendicular  to the up vector
                  direction.  Thus, to draw a text string at a 45 degree angle the  character  up
                  vector would be (-1,1), and the text path would be right .
