set dialog

set dialog pc fc bc oc th <numeric|n>

Sets color properties for dialog box widgets.

pc    prompt color
fc    foreground text color
bc    background color
oc    outline color
th    outline thickness
n     numeric input only (optional)

Usage Notes

1. If th is 1-5, a one-pixel border is drawn; if it is 6 or more, a two-pixel border is drawn.

2. Default colors are accessed by setting the colors to -1.

3. If the numeric option is invoked, keyboard inputs are restricted to 0-9, ., -, +, e, and E. Entered value is checked to assure it is a rational number of the form +/-nnnn, +/-nnnn.dddd, or +/-nnnn.ddddE+/-xxxx. This assures the returned numeric value is valid for use by a GrADS script.

4. See the q dialog refrence page for details on execution of the dialog box widgets.
