pgplotmanager.play - Function



Package display
Module plotter
Tool pgplotmanager


Execute a series of plot commands


Synopsis
play(commands, record)


Description
This function is used to execute a series of plot commands in this plotter. It is used internally (e.g. by refresh), but it can also be of use to programmers. For example, you could keep external ``decorations'' in a list, and show or don't show them by calling play.

The format of the commands is that it is either a displaylist from a pgplotwidget, or it is a record, each field of which is a plot command of the form, e.g.:

    [_function='line', xpts=1:10, ypts=1:10]



Arguments

commands   list of plot commands to execute
    Allowed: displaylist or record
record   save commands in our internal displaylist?
    Allowed: boolean


Returns
T or fail
