GETTEXTPOSITION

Graphics Subroutine: Returns the current text position. This routine is only available for Windows.

Module

USE IFQWIN

CALL GETTEXTPOSITION (s)

s

(Output) Derived type rccord. Current text position. The derived type rccoord is defined in IFQWIN.F90 as follows:

TYPE rccoord
  INTEGER(2) row   ! Row coordinate
  INTEGER(2) col   ! Column coordinate
END TYPE rccoord

The text position given by coordinates (1, 1) is defined as the upper-left corner of the text window. Text output from the OUTTEXT function (and WRITE and PRINT statements) begins at the current text position. Font text is not affected by the current text position. Graphics output, including OUTGTEXT output, begins at the current graphics output position, which is a separate position returned by GETCURRENTPOSITION.

Example

!  Build as QuickWin or Standard Graphics
     USE IFQWIN
     TYPE (rccoord) textpos
     CALL GETTEXTPOSITION (textpos)
     END
