Figure 16 shows the Graphics Object Area Position control specifying the top left
reference point for the graphics object area.
Figure 16. Graphics Object Area Position Control and the Graphics Object Area
Byte 10 of the GAP specifies the reference coordinate system. The reference
coordinate system used for determining the top left corner of the graphics object
area can be either the media X,Y or the I,B coordinate system.
If byte 10 equals X
'00', the absolute I and B coordinates determine the top left
corner. GAP bytes 4 and 5 specify the text inline coordinate. GAP bytes 6 and 7
specify the text baseline coordinate.
If byte 10 equals X
'20', the absolute I and relative B coordinates determine the
top left corner. GAP bytes 4 and 5 specify the text inline coordinate. GAP bytes
6 and 7 add to the last text baseline coordinate position used prior to graphics.
If byte 10 equals X
'40', the relative I and absolute B coordinates determine the
top left corner. GAP bytes 4 and 5 add to the last text inline coordinate position
used prior to graphics. GAP bytes 6 and 7 specify the text baseline coordinate.
If byte 10 equals X
'60', the relative I and B coordinates determine the top left
corner. GAP bytes 4 and 5 add to the last text inline coordinate position used
prior to graphics. GAP bytes 6 and 7 add to the last text baseline coordinate
position used prior to graphics.
