Class IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator

java.lang.Object

ilog.views.IlvAccelerator

ilog.views.accelerator.IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator
extends IlvAccelerator

IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator is used to duplicate the currently selected objects in a manager.

Duplicates of the selected objects are positioned 10 points lower and to the right of the top left point of the selected objects.

Example

The following code example shows how to use IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator in a simple Java application:

  // Install the select interactor on the view.
  // This is used to select graphic objects with the mouse that can then be
  // deleted using the custom delete interactor.
  IlvSelectInteractor inter = new IlvSelectInteractor();
  inter.setOpaqueMove(true);
  mgrview.setInteractor(inter);

  // Install the duplicate accelerator.
  manager.addAccelerator(
      new IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator(KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED,
                                           KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED,
                                           'd', 0, true));
 

About Interactors and Accelerators

All input events are handled by means of interactors or accelerators. Accelerators, such as IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator, are subclasses of IlvAccelerator. Each accelerator listens for a specific key event in the manager. For information on handling events in a manager, see Handling Events.

The following code examples show how to handle user events:

• accelerator example
• global view interactor example
• local object interactor example

Constructor Detail

IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator

public IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator(int type,
                                        int keyCode,
                                        char keyChar,
                                        int modifiers,
                                        boolean consumeEvents)

Creates an IlvDuplicateSelectionAccelerator. You can specify the associated key either by a key code or by a key character. Key codes are useful for function keys while key characters are more useful for regular characters 'a'...'z','A'...'Z','0'...'9','+','-', etc. which, depending on the keyboard layout may produce different key codes. For instance, on a US keyboard, the character '+' has the same key code as the character '=', while on a German keyboard, the character '+' has the same key code as the character '*', hence specifying the '+' character by key code instead of key character might be not suitable. To indicate that only the key code should be checked, pass KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED as key character. To indicate that only the key character should be checked, pass KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED as key code.

Parameters:

type - The type of the AWT event.

keyCode - The code associated with the key, or KeyEvent.VK_UNDEFINED.

keyChar - The character associated with the key, or KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED.

modifiers - The modifiers of the key.

consumeEvents - If true, the accelerator handles and consumes the event, except when the consume flag of the event is already set to true. If false, the accelerator ignores the event's consume flag, and handles all events without changing the consume flag.
