PTSEG (Parameter Term Segment)
The PTSEG tag defines a segment of the parameter term. It is used to provide vertical separation of the PT tag text.
Syntax
Comments
The PTSEG tag is used to create a vertical separation within the parameter term. The text following the PTSEG tag is formatted directly under any previous parameter term tag text. Multiple PTSEG tags create additional PT text lines.
Use of the PTSEG tag affects the PARML tag BREAK attribute. The first (or only) line of PT tag text is processed according to the BREAK attribute of the PARML tag. For additional lines, when TSIZE is large enough to accommodate the text segments, the PTSEG text is formatted in front of the associated PD tag text. When TSIZE is not large enough to accommodate the largest segment, all of the PT and PTSEG text is formatted above the associated PD tag text.
Restrictions
- The PTSEG tag can be coded within the text following a PT tag.
- When a PTSEG tag is coded, then all remaining PT tag text for the current PT tag set must follow a PTSEG tag.
- The PT nested tags RP and PS are not supported within PT tag text following any PTSEG tag in a PT/PD tag set.

Examples
Here is an example that shows the PTSEG tag in combination with a multiple PT tag set. The last PT tag includes the SPLIT=yes attribute to format the dash in front of the PD tag text. Figure 1 shows the formatted result.
