NAME

       plmapstring - Plot all or a subset of Shapefile data using strings or points in world coordinates

SYNOPSIS

       plmapstring(mapform, name, string, minx, maxx, miny, maxy, plotentries, nplotentries)

DESCRIPTION

       As  per  plmapline(3plplot),  however  the  items  are  plotted  as  strings or points in the same way as
       plstring(3plplot).

       Redacted form: plmapstring(mapform, name, string, minx, maxx, miny, maxy, plotentries)

       This function is not used in any examples.

ARGUMENTS

       mapform (PLMAPFORM_callback(3plplot), input)
              A user supplied function to  transform  the  coordinates  given  in  the  shapefile  into  a  plot
              coordinate system. By using this transform, we can change from a longitude, latitude coordinate to
              a polar stereographic project,  for  example.   Initially,  x[0]..[n-1]  are  the  longitudes  and
              y[0]..y[n-1]  are the corresponding latitudes.  After the call to mapform(), x[] and y[] should be
              replaced by the corresponding plot coordinates.  If  no  transform  is  desired,  mapform  can  be
              replaced by NULL.

       name (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              An  ascii  character  string specifying the file name of a set of Shapefile files without the file
              extension.

       string (PLCHAR_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A UTF-8 character string to be drawn.

       minx (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              The minimum x value to be plotted. This must be in the same units as used by  the  Shapefile.  You
              could  use  a  very  large  negative number to plot everything, but you can improve performance by
              limiting the area drawn. The units must match those of the Shapefile projection, which may be  for
              example longitude or distance. The value of minx must be less than the value of maxx.

       maxx (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              The  maximum  x value to be plotted. You could use a very large number to plot everything, but you
              can improve performance by limiting the area drawn.

       miny (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              The minimum y value to be plotted. This must be in the same units as used by  the  Shapefile.  You
              could  use  a  very  large  negative number to plot everything, but you can improve performance by
              limiting the area drawn. The units must match those of the Shapefile projection, which may be  for
              example latitude or distance. The value of miny must be less than the value of maxy.

       maxy (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
              The  maximum  y value to be plotted. You could use a very large number to plot everything, but you
              can improve performance by limiting the area drawn.

       plotentries (PLINT_VECTOR(3plplot), input)
              A vector containing the zero-based indices of the Shapefile elements which will be drawn.  Setting
              plotentries to NULL will plot all elements of the Shapefile.

       nplotentries (PLINT(3plplot), input)
              The number of items in plotentries.  Ignored if plotentries is NULL.
