DESCRIPTION

53       This program manages display frames on  the  user's  graphics  monitor.
54       Graphics are displayed in rectangular frames on whatever graphics moni‐
55       tor the user is currently directing GRASS  display  output  to.   These
56       frames  are created and managed with this module. Note that GRASS frame
57       contents are not retained when one frame  covers  another.  You  cannot
58       shuffle  frames  from  top  to bottom and then back again.  They simply
59       define rectangular areas on the screen where  subsequent  drawing  will
60       occur.
61

NOTES

63       The  coordinates  for  the  at=  option  are  stated  in the form: bot‐
64       tom,top,left,right. The  lower-left  corner  of  the  graphics  monitor
65       always  is  at  location  0,0 while the monitor's upper-right corner is
66       always at 100,100 (the values are in percent).
67
68       If at= options are not given during frame correction the user  will  be
69       prompted to create the frame using the mouse.  Likewise if a frame name
70       is not given during frame selection,  the  user  will  be  prompted  to
71       select an existing frame on the display monitor using the mouse.
72
73       If  the  user  has  created  multiple  display  frames that overlap one
74       another, whatever the user displays in the active frame will  overwrite
75       those portions of the underlying frame where these frames overlap.
76
77       A  frame  by  the  name  of  full_screen  is  always present and may be
78       selected at any time. This may be useful if you would like to de-select
79       all user defined frames just before taking a screenshot.
