NAME

       LINE3 - Draws the straight-line segment joining the projections of two points in 3-space.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL LINE3 (UA,VA,WA,UB,VB,WB)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_line3 (float ua, float va, float wa, float ub,
       float vb, float wb)

DESCRIPTION

       UA,VA,WA    (input expressions of type REAL) are the coordinates of the first point in
                   3-space.

       UB,VB,WB    (input expressions of type REAL) are the coordinates of the second point in
                   3-space.

       The statement "CALL LINE3 (UA,VA,WA,UB,VB,WB)" is equivalent to the three statements "CALL
       FRST3 (UA,VA,WA)", "CALL VECT3 (UB,VB,,WB)", and "CALL PLOTIF (0.,0.,2), but is slightly
       more efficient.  To approximate a curve defined by three or more points, though, it is not
       efficient to use LINE3, because the first point of each line segment after the first will
       be a repeat of the second point of the previous line segment and will therefore be
       repeated in the metafile.  Thus, to approximate a curve, you should use FRST3 and VECT3 or
       CURVE3.

       Straight-line segments drawn by LINE3 are drawn in the current polyline color, as
       determined by the last call to the GKS routine GSPLCI; by default, color index 1 is used.
       Line width is determined by the last call to the GKS routine GSLWSC; by default, the line
       width scale factor is 1.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions.

EXAMPLES

       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant example: tpwrzt, fthex02.

ACCESS

       To use LINE3 or c_line3, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c,
       preferably in that order.
