Command: east

Syntax

east { <window> }

Description

Display an orthographic view of the model looking east.

Parameters

• <window>
  A window identifier. The window must be a graphic window. If omitted, the current graphic window is used.

Switches

• -dbt=<num>
  A transition style to be invoked at the end of the contents repaint. This feature is used only when double buffering is active for the window and facilitates presentation-type effects. See here for a description of all available transition styles. If this switch is omitted, the transition style of the window is used (see window.double_buffering).

• -loc
  Display an east view of the window’s local axes, rather than using the global axes (the default).

• -o1=<num>
  An X ordinate defining the front viewing plane. If omitted, the left-hand side of the window’s orthogonal box is used.

• -o2=<num>
  An X ordinate defining the rear viewing plane. If omitted, the right-hand side of the window’s orthogonal box is used.

• -p1=<point>
  A 3-D point defining the front viewing plane. If omitted, the left-hand side of the window’s orthogonal box is used.

• -p2=<point>
  A 3-D point defining the rear viewing plane. If omitted, the right-hand side of the window’s orthogonal box is used.

Notes

If the window is not currently in use, or is not a graphic window, no action is taken.

Examples

Draw an east view of the current orthogonal box in the current graphic window.

east

Draw an east view of the current orthogonal box in a specified window.

east win2

Draw an east view between two points.

east -p1=p0, -p2=my_point

Draw an east view between two X ordinates.

east -o1=10, -o2=100
