Detailed Description

Group node encapsulating a graphic object.

Library: ilvproto

IlvGraphicNode is a subclass of IlvGroupNode designed to include Rogue Wave Views IlvGraphic objects in groups.

Accessors

The following table shows the accessors defined by the IlvGraphicNode class, and their associated types. Note that these accessors can be applied to either a particular graphic node, or to a whole group. When a value is changed for a whole group, it is changed for all its individual subgroups and graphic nodes.

Accessor	Type	Description
manager	`IlAny`	When used on a group, these values change or query the corresponding values for all the group nodes.
layer	`IlInt`	When used on a group, these values change or query the corresponding values for all the group nodes.
baseLayer	`IlInt`	Sets/gets the base layer of the graphic node or the group.
visible	`IlBoolean`	When used on a group, these values change or query the corresponding values for all the group nodes.
transformer	`IlvTransformer`	When used on a group, these values change or query the corresponding values for all the group nodes.
x, y	`IlInt`	Sets/gets the position of the bounding box of all the graphic nodes contained in the group. When the x and/or y values are changed, all the graphic objects are moved together so that the new bounding box is at the designated position.
width, height	`IlUInt`	Gets the size of the bounding box of all the graphic nodes contained in the group. These values cannot be changed: use the transformer value to change the size of a group.
centerX, centerY	`IlUInt`	Gets the center of the group bounding box.
interactor	`IlAny`	Sets/gets the interactor of the graphic object.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

§ IlvGraphicNode()

IlvGraphicNode::IlvGraphicNode	(	IlvGraphic *	graphic,
		const char *	name = `0`,
		IlBoolean	transformed = `IlFalse`
	)

Creates a new graphic node holding a graphic object.

Parameters

graphic	Graphic object to encapsulate in a group node so that it will be handled by an `IlvGroup`.
name	If non-null, it is stored as the node name. Otherwise, if the graphic object has a name, this name is used as the node name. Otherwise, the class name of the graphic object is used.
transformed	If set to `IlTrue`, the graphic node will use a local transformer to draw the object. For details, see the `setTransformed()` method.

Member Function Documentation

§ apply()

void IlvGraphicNode::apply	(	IlvGraphicNodeApplyFunc	func,
		IlAny	arg,
		IlBoolean	redraw = `IlTrue`,
		IlBoolean	local = `IlFalse`
	)

Applies a change to a graphic node.

This method calls the applyToObject() method of the container manager that includes the graphic object associated with the node. If redraw is IlTrue, the object is redrawn. The func parameter has the following signature:

typedef void (*IlvGraphicNodeApplyFunc)(IlvGraphic* obj,
                                        IlAny arg,
                                        IlvGraphic* transformedObj);

§ changeValue()

virtual IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::changeValue ( const IlvValue & v )

virtual

Changes the object's value. Both the name and the new value are contained in val.

Parameters

v	The value to be set (both name and value).

Returns: Whether the object considered the operation successful or not.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ changeValues()

virtual IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::changeValues	(	const IlvValue *	v,
		IlUShort	c
	)

virtual

Changes several values of an object in a single call. The default implementation calls changeValue() for all values.

Parameters

v	The changed values (both name and values).
c	The number of values.

Returns: Whether the object considered the operation successful or not.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ getAccessors()

virtual void IlvGraphicNode::getAccessors	(	const IlSymbol const *	a,
		const IlvValueTypeClass const *	t,
		IlUInt &	c
	)		const

virtual

Returns the names of all the accessors known by this object.

Subclasses of IlvAccessible must override this method by calling the static method DeclareAccessor() for each accessor handled by the subclass. The returned arrays are filled by the method and must not be freed.

Parameters

a	Pointer to an array filled on return with the names of the accessors defined for the object.
t	Pointer to an array filled on return with the type of each accessor.
c	Number of accessors, set by the method.

Implements IlvAccessible.

§ getBaseLayer()

int IlvGraphicNode::getBaseLayer ( ) const

Returns the base layer of the graphic node.

Returns: The index of the base layer.

§ getInteractor()

const char* IlvGraphicNode::getInteractor ( ) const

Returns the name of the object interactor associated with the graphic object of this node.

See also: IlvInteractor, IlvGraphic::setInteractor(), IlvGraphic::getDefaultInteractor().

§ getLayer()

int IlvGraphicNode::getLayer ( ) const

Returns the manager layer to which the graphic object belongs, or -1 if the object is not in a manager.

The layer index returned is the relative layer, that is, the manager layer minus the base layer (see setBaseLayer()).

§ getManagedGraphic()

IlvGraphic* IlvGraphicNode::getManagedGraphic ( ) const

Returns the graphic object contained in the manager or the container.

This graphic object is the one passed to the constructor, or to an IlvTransformedGraphic containing the graphic object if the node is transformed.

§ getMinZoom()

IlFloat IlvGraphicNode::getMinZoom ( ) const

Returns the minimum zoom level of the graphic node.

See also: setFixedSize().

§ getName()

virtual const char* IlvGraphicNode::getName ( ) const

virtual

Returns the name of the group node.

If a name was explicitly specified when the node was created, or if the setName method was called, this name is returned. Otherwise, a subclass-dependent method is used to find a default node name.

Returns: Name of the group node.

Reimplemented from IlvGroupNode.

§ isFixedSize()

IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::isFixedSize ( ) const

Returns the fixed size status of the node.

See also: setFixedSize().

§ isHidden()

IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::isHidden ( ) const

Returns the hidden state of the node.

Hidden nodes are visible during editing in Studio, but they are hidden in the final application.

§ isNode() [1/2]

IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::isNode ( ) const

Returns IlTrue if the graphic object associated with the graphic node is an IlvGrapher node.

See also: IlvGrapher, IlvGrapher::addNode().

§ isNode() [2/2]

void IlvGraphicNode::isNode ( IlBoolean isit )

Specifies that the object is to be made an IlvGrapher node when the graphic object is placed in an IlvGrapher.

Parameters

isit	If `IlTrue`, the graphic object associated with the graphic node will become an `IlvGrapher` node when it is added to an `IlvGrapher`. This means that the `addNode()` method of the `IlvGrapher` will be called instead of the `addObject()` method of the `IlvManager`.

See also: IlvGrapher, IlvProtoGrapher, IlvGrapherNode.

§ isTransformed()

IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::isTransformed ( ) const

Returns IlTrue if the node uses a transformed graphic to draw its graphic object.

See also: setTransformed().

§ isVisible()

IlBoolean IlvGraphicNode::isVisible ( ) const

Returns the visibility state of the graphic object in its manager.

See also: IlvManager::setVisible().

§ queryValue()

virtual IlvValue& IlvGraphicNode::queryValue ( IlvValue & value ) const

virtual

Queries the value designated by value from the object. Both the value and the value type are stored in value.

Parameters

value The queried value name.

Returns: The value passed in argument, set to the object value.

Reimplemented from IlvAccessible.

§ setBaseLayer()

void IlvGraphicNode::setBaseLayer ( int layer )

Sets the base layer of the graphic node.

The base layer is used as an offset and is added to the node layer set by setLayer() when the graphic object is added to a manager. For example, you can move a whole group two layers up by adding 2 to its current base layer. The graphic nodes of the group will keep their relative layer positions.

Parameters

layer The layer used as the base layer.

§ setFixedSize()

void IlvGraphicNode::setFixedSize ( IlBoolean fixed )

Controls the way the graphic node is displayed when the transformer of the view in which the group is displayed changes.

If fixed is IlTrue, the graphic node will zoom only between the zoom factors defined by the methods setMinZoom() and setMaxZoom(). If the scale factor of the view transformer is greater than the maximum zoom, the graphic node is displayed at the size corresponding to the maximum zoom. Similarly, if the scale factor of the view transformer is less than the minimum zoom, the node is displayed at the size corresponding to the minimum zoom. The position of the node, however, is always computed according to the actual view transformer. In other words, when you zoom in on a view, fixed size nodes keep the same size, but they move away from each other. When you zoom out, they move closer to each other. The positions of the node are computed based on the center of their group, so that the graphic nodes of a group always "stay together". If the minimum zoom is 0, the node will stop zooming in at the maximum zoom, but it zooms out normally. Inversely, if the maximum zoom is 0, the node stops zooming out at the minimum but it zooms in normally. If the minimum and maximum zoom are both 0, the node does not zoom at all: it always keeps its untransformed size. If fixed is IlFalse and the minimum or maximum zooms are not 0, the graphic node disappears when the minimum or maximum zoom is exceeded, instead of keeping its size. If fixed is IlFalse and the minimum and maximum zoom are both 0, the node zooms normally, regardless of what the view transformer is (this is the default).

This behavior is effective only for transformed graphic nodes (that is, if setTransformer(IlTrue) was called). You can call setFixedSize(), setMinZoom(), and setMaxZoom() for non-transformed nodes, but the node will behave as explained above only when setTransformed(IlTrue) is called.

Parameters

fixed Indicates whether to use a fixed size transformation.

§ setHidden()

void IlvGraphicNode::setHidden ( IlBoolean hidden )

Sets the hidden state of the node.

Hidden nodes are visible during editing in Studio, but they are hidden in the final application.

Parameters

hidden If IlTrue, the object will be shown in Studio but not in the programs that use the object. Otherwise, it will always be shown.

§ setInteractor()

void IlvGraphicNode::setInteractor ( const char * name )

Sets the name of the object interactor associated with the graphic object of this node.

Parameters

name	Interactor name.

See also: IlvInteractor, IlvGraphic::setInteractor(), IlvGraphic::getDefaultInteractor().

§ setLayer()

void IlvGraphicNode::setLayer ( int layer )

Moves the graphic object to the specified manager layer.

If the graphic object has not yet been added to a manager, the layer value is stored until the manager is specified using setManager(), at which time the specified layer will be used. The layer index is considered a relative layer, that is, it will be added to the base layer when the object is added to a manager (see setBaseLayer()).

Parameters

layer The layer to place the graphic object in.

§ setMaxZoom()

void IlvGraphicNode::setMaxZoom ( IlFloat zoom )

Sets the maximum zoom level of the graphic node.

1.0 is the default zoom level in all views. When the user zooms in on the view, the zoom level of the view increases beyond 1.0. When the zoom level of the current view reaches the object zoom level, the visible size of the object no longer increases.

See also: setFixedSize().

§ setMinZoom()

void IlvGraphicNode::setMinZoom ( IlFloat zoom )

Sets the minimum zoom level of the graphic node (see setFixedSize()).

1.0 is the default zoom level in all views. When the user zooms out on the view, the zoom level of the view decreases below 1.0. When the zoom level of the current view reaches the object zoom level, the visible size of the object no longer decreases.

Parameters

zoom	Minimum zoom level.

§ setName()

virtual void IlvGraphicNode::setName ( const char * name )

virtual

Sets the name of the node.

A copy of name is stored in the node. This method can be overridden.

Reimplemented from IlvGroupNode.

§ setTransformed()

void IlvGraphicNode::setTransformed	(	IlBoolean	transformed,
		IlBoolean	editModeChanged = `IlFalse`
	)

Makes the node a transformed graphic node.

Transformed graphic nodes are used to ensure that groups can be arbitrarily resized without corrupting the geometry of the graphic objects they contain. In a transformed node, the graphic object added to the manager or the container is not the graphic passed to the constructor, but a transformed graphic object that references it.

Parameters

transformed	Specifies whether the graphic object should be placed inside an `IlvTransformedGraphic` to avoid corrupting its coordinates when resizing it.
editModeChanged	Used internally.

§ setVisible()

void IlvGraphicNode::setVisible ( IlBoolean visible )

Sets the visibility state of the graphic object in its manager.

Parameters

visible If IlTrue, the object is made visible, otherwise, it is made invisible.
