Next: Specific header arguments, Previous: Header arguments, Up: Header arguments [Contents][Index]
The values of header arguments can be set in several way. When the header arguments in each layer have been determined, they are combined in order from the first, least specific (having the lowest priority) up to the last, most specific (having the highest priority). A header argument with a higher priority replaces the same header argument specified at lower priority.
