Detailed Description

Implementation of links drawn as an arc.

Library: ilvgrapher

A link of the IlvArcLinkImage class is drawn as an arc, as shown in the following figure:

- IlvArcLinkImage -

The distance between the arc middle point and the segment joining the endpoints of the link (also called the arc offset) can be specified:

• with a fixed value (see the IlvArcLinkImage::setFixedOffset method),
• with a value proportional to the length of the segment (see the IlvArcLinkImage::setOffsetRatio method).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IlvArcLinkImage::IlvArcLinkImage	(	IlvDisplay *	display,
		IlBoolean	oriented,
		IlvGraphic *	from,
		IlvGraphic *	to,
		IlDouble	offsetRatio = .20,
		IlvPos	fixedOffset = 0,
		IlvPalette *	palette = 0
	)

Constructor.

The constructor initializes a new instance of the IlvArcLinkImage class with an arc offset specified either by offsetRatio or fixedOffset.

Parameters

display	The display connection that handles the drawing of the object.
oriented	A Boolean indicating whether an arrowhead is to be drawn at the end of the link.
from	The IlvGraphic object representing the start node of the link.
to	The IlvGraphic object representing the end node of the link.
offsetRatio	The ratio of the arc offset to the length of the segment joining the endpoints of the link.
fixedOffset	A fixed value for the arc offset. This value is meaningful only if offsetRatio is equal to 0.
palette	The palette used to draw the link.

See Also

setFixedOffset, setOffsetRatio.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void IlvArcLinkImage::computePoints ( IlvPoint &  src, IlvPoint &  dst, const IlvTransformer *  t = 0  ) const

virtual

Computes the endpoints of the link when it is drawn as a straight line.

The default implementation computes the endpoints from the bounding boxes of the starting and ending nodes:

• If these rectangles do not intersect, the points are the middle of the sides of the rectangles to be joined.
• If the bounding boxes intersect, the method returns the center of each box.

This method is called by the default implementation of the IlvLinkImage::getLinkPoints method.

Parameters

src	The starting point of the link.
dst	The ending point of the link.
t	The transformer applied to the link.

Reimplemented from IlvLinkImage.

virtual IlvPos IlvArcLinkImage::getArcOffset ( const IlvPoint &  from, const IlvPoint &  to  ) const

virtual

Computes the arc offset.

Parameters

from	The starting point of the link.
to	The ending point of the link.

Returns

The distance between the two control points and the segment joining from and to.

See Also

isOffsetFixed, getOffsetRatio, getFixedOffset.

IlvPos IlvArcLinkImage::getFixedOffSet

(

)

const

Returns the fixed value for the arc offset.

Returns

The fixed value for the arc offset.

See Also

isOffsetFixed, setFixedOffset.

virtual IlvPoint* IlvArcLinkImage::getLinkPoints ( IlUInt &  nPoints, const IlvTransformer *  t = 0  ) const

virtual

Returns the points defining the shape of the link.

Returns an array of points defining the shape of the link when it is drawn with the transformer t. The size of the resulting array of points is returned in the nPoints parameter. The array is stored in an IlPoolOf(IlvPoint) and should not be deleted or modified.
This method is internally used by the methods draw, contains, and boundingBox. It is meant to replace various methods defined in subclasses in previous releases of Rogue Wave Views; like the obsolete IlvOneLinkImage::getPoints.
This function is overloaded by subclasses defining a specific shape for links. The default implementation returns an array of two points computed with the IlvLinkImage::computePoints method.

Parameters

nPoints	The number of points in the returned array.
t	The transformer applied to the link.

Returns

The points defining the shape of the link.

Reimplemented from IlvLinkImage.

IlDouble IlvArcLinkImage::getOffsetRatio

(

)

const

Returns the ratio defining the arc offset.

Returns the ratio of the arc offset to the length of the segment joining the endpoints of the link. If the ratio is equal to 0, the arc offset is fixed to the value returned by the IlvArcLinkImage::getFixedOffSet method.

Returns

The arc offset ratio.

See Also

isOffsetFixed, setOffsetRatio.

IlBoolean IlvArcLinkImage::isOffsetFixed

(

)

const

Indicates whether the arc offset is fixed.

Returns

IlTrue if the distance is fixed, and IlFalse if it is proportional to the length of the segment joining the endpoints of the link.

See Also

setFixedOffset, setOffsetRatio.

void IlvArcLinkImage::setFixedOffset

(

IlvPos

offset

)

Sets the arc offset to a fixed value.

Parameters

offset

The new arc offset.

See Also

isOffsetFixed, setOffsetRatio.

void IlvArcLinkImage::setOffsetRatio

(

IlDouble

ratio

)

Sets the ratio defining the arc offset.

Sets the ratio of the arc offset to the length of the segment joining the endpoints of the link. If the ratio is equal to 0, the arc offset is fixed to the value returned by the IlvArcLinkImage::getFixedOffSet method.

Parameters

ratio

The new arc offset ratio.
