Actually, I've just realised that it can't be implemented at present. Although the R_text() function can be handed off to individual drivers, the R_text_size() and R_text_rotation() functions can't, nor can R_font(), so the driver doesn't have enough information to actually draw text. [The reason that R_text() can be handed off is because the HTMLMAP driver uses it to label areas.] -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list [email protected] http://grass.itc.it/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
