NAME

GraphicCompTool − tool for instantiating graphical components

SYNOPSIS

#include <Unidraw/Tools/grcomptool.h>

DESCRIPTION

A GraphicCompTool lets the user instantiate graphical components by direct manipulation.  The GraphicCompTool keeps a prototypical component that defines the type of component it can instantiate. 

PUBLIC OPERATIONS

GraphicCompTool(ControlInfo∗, GraphicComp∗ prototype)

GraphicCompTool()
Create a new GraphicCompTool, supplying the prototypical GraphicComp.  (You should not normally call the parameterless constructor, which Creator requires.)  The first constructor creates a graphical view of the prototype for internal use.

virtual Manipulator∗ CreateManipulator(

   Viewer∗, Event&, Transformer∗

)

virtual void InterpretManipulator(Manipulator∗)
CreateManipulator clears the editor’s selection and delegates manipulator creation and interpretation to the graphical view of the prototype.

GraphicComp∗ GetPrototype()
Return the prototypical GraphicComp.
