Description[edit]
The "attach" command is used to open a display window. The set of supported window types includes X and ogl. It should be noted that attach no longer releases previously attached display windows (i.e., multiple attaches are supported). To destroy a display window, use the release command.
Example(s)[edit]
- mged> attach ogl
- Open an ogl display window named .dm_ogl0 (assuming this is the first ogl display window opened using the default naming scheme).
- mged> attach ogl
- Open a ogl display window named .dm_ogl1.
- mged> attach -n myOgl -W 720 -N 486 ogl
- Open a 720x486 OpenGL display window named myOgl.
- mged> attach -n myX -d remote_host:0 -i myInit X
- *Open an X display window named myX on remote_host that is initialized by myInit.
>> *myInit might contain user specified bindings like those found in the default binding
- mged> toplevel .t
- Create a toplevel window named .t.
- mged> attach -t 0 -S 800 -n .t.ogl ogl
- Open a 800x800 OpenGl display window named .t.ogl that is not a top-level window
- mged> button .t.dismiss -text Dismiss -command "release .t.ogl; destroy .t"
