Table 5-7. ALTER DJDE options and definitions

Definition
name
Identifies a previously specified graphic that is currently subject to the HOLD
parameter of the command that specifies it.
Refer to the “IMAGE DJDE” section later in this chapter.
vpos
vertical position
.
Specifies the vertical position of the top edge of the graphic, relative to 0,0 on
the current physical page
hpos
horizontal position
Specifies the horizontal position of the left edge of the graphic relative to 0,0 on
the current physical page. The form of the specification (UN, CM, IN, DOTS, or
XDOTS) is the same as for
vpos
.
n
/
d
numerator / denominator
Specifies the reference scale factor. Each DJDE,
n
and
d
, must be an integer in
the range of 1 to 8, thereby allowing a reference scale factor in the range of 1/8
to 8. The reference scale factor is multiplied.
unit
Unit of measure for the vertical and horizontal positions. Options are:
•
CM (centimeters)
•
IN (inches)
•
DOTS
•
XDOTS
•
UN (user defined units).
If UN is specified, the user defined positioning unit must previously be
defined by the UNITS parameter of the OUTPUT command in the current
JDE or JDL.
NOTE: IN and CM are each specified as a decimal number with up to three
digits to the right of the decimal point.
The default unit is IN.
