Detailed Description

This class allows you to perform the layout on a subgraph that is, on a subset of the nodes and links of the original grapher (IlvGrapher).

Library: ilvlayout

The accept method of the filter is called by the IlvGrapherAdapter to know, for any node and link, if the node or link must be taken into account or if it is completely ignored.

To install a filter on an IlvGrapherAdapter instance, use the method IlvGrapherAdapter.setFilter.

Note that all overridden implementations of the method accept must respect the following rules:

Member Function Documentation

virtual IlBoolean IlvLayoutGraphicFilter::accept ( IlvGraphic obj)
virtual

Returns IlTrue if the graphic object obj is a node or a link that must be taken into account during the layout.

If no layers are specified using the method addLayer on the adapter instance on which the filter is installed, or if all the layers are specified, the method returns IlTrue for any argument. Otherwise, it returns IlTrue only for objects on the specified layers.

This method can be overridden in order to specify other conditions for filtering the nodes and the links.

Warning
[note] Any overridden implementation of this method must respect the following rule: A link cannot be accepted if any of its end nodes (origin or destination nodes) are not accepted.
