delete_contour

Context: sl.chips

Synopsis

Delete the specified contour.

Syntax

delete_contour();
delete_contour( [ChipsId] );
delete_contour( "contour_id" );
delete_contour( "all" );

Description

Depending on the argument, the delete_contour command deletes the current contour, the contour indicated in a ChipsId structure or by the contour_id, or all contours.

(no argument) - the current contour is deleted.
ChipsId - an optional ChipsId structure containing values to modify the currency state for the command.
contour_id - identification tag given to each object that is created; use this to delete a specific contour.
all - deletes all contours.

Example 1

chips> add_contour([[1,1,1], [1,3,1], [1,1,1]], 3,3);
chips> delete_contour();

Create a contour, then delete it.

Example 2

chips> id = ChipsId();
chips> add_contour([[1,1,1], [1,3,1], [1,1,1]], 3,3,
[1.1,1.5,2,2.5],"id=levels");
chips> add_contour({1,2,5,3,3,6,0,0,1},3,3);
chips> id.contour = "levels";
chips> delete_contour(id);

Two contours are created; the second contour is current after it is created. The id.contour command sets the contour value of the ChipsId structure to the first contour. That contour is then deleted.

Example 3

chips> add_contour([[1,1,1], [1,3,1], [1,1,1]], 3,3,
[1.1,1.5,2,2.5],"color=lime style=solid");
chips> add_contour({1,2,5,3,3,6,0,0,1},3,3);
chips> delete_contour("all");

Two contours are created, then the delete_contour command deletes them both.
