LineAttributeControl

class HPS::LineAttributeControl : public HPS::Control

The HPS::LineAttributeControl class is a smart pointer that is tied to a database object. This control allows you to manipulate the weight and pattern of lines and polylines.

This table lists default values for the various segment attributes accessible from HPS::LineAttributeControl.

Public Functions

LineAttributeControl(LineAttributeControl &&in_that)

The move constructor creates a LineAttributeControl by transferring the underlying impl of the rvalue reference to this LineAttributeControl thereby avoiding a copy and allocation.

Parameters

in_that – An rvalue reference to a LineAttributeControl to take the impl from.

LineAttributeControl(LineAttributeControl const &in_that)

Initializes a control tied to the same object as in_that.

explicit LineAttributeControl(SegmentKey &in_seg)

Initializes a control tied to the segment in_seg.

inline virtual HPS::Type ObjectType() const

This function returns the type the object, as declared (if the object is derived, this does not give the true type of the derived object).

Returns

The declared type of the object in question, which may differ from the true, underlying type.

LineAttributeControl &operator=(LineAttributeControl &&in_that)

The move assignment operator transfers the underlying impl of the rvalue reference to this LineAttributeControl thereby avoiding a copy.

Parameters

in_that – An rvalue reference to a LineAttributeControl to take the impl from.

Returns

A reference to this LineAttributeControl.

LineAttributeControl &operator=(LineAttributeControl const &in_that)

Share the underlying smart-pointer of the LineAttributeControl source.

Parameters

in_that – The LineAttributeControl source of the assignment.

Returns

A reference to this LineAttributeControl.

LineAttributeControl &SetPattern(char const *in_pattern)

Specifies the pattern of lines.

See

Programming Guide: Line Patterns

Parameters

in_pattern – The name of a line pattern, defined in a portfolio that is accessible.

Returns

A reference to this object.

LineAttributeControl &SetPattern(char const *in_pattern, LinePatternOptionsKit const &in_options)

Specifies the pattern of lines.

See

Programming Guide: Line Patterns

Parameters
  • in_pattern – The name of a line pattern, defined in a portfolio that is accessible.

  • in_options – A set of options that modify how the named line pattern is applied.

Returns

A reference to this object.

LineAttributeControl &SetWeight(float in_weight, Line::SizeUnits in_units = Line::SizeUnits::ScaleFactor)

Sets the weight of lines.

Parameters
  • in_weight – The weight value for lines.

  • in_units – The units applied to in_weight.

Returns

A reference to this object.

bool ShowPattern(UTF8 &out_pattern, LinePatternOptionsKit &out_options) const

Shows the pattern used to draw lines.

Parameters
  • out_pattern – The name of a line pattern, defined in a portfolio that is accessible.

  • out_options – A set of options that modify how the named line pattern is applied.

Returns

true if the setting is valid, false otherwise.

bool ShowWeight(float &out_weight, Line::SizeUnits &out_units) const

Shows the weight of lines.

Parameters
  • out_weight – The weight value for lines.

  • out_units – The units applied to in_weight.

Returns

true if the setting is valid, false otherwise.

LineAttributeControl &UnsetEverything()

Removes all settings from this object. If the control is attached to a WindowKey this function restores the default settings of this control as specified by LineAttributeKit::GetDefault().

Returns

A reference to this object.

LineAttributeControl &UnsetPattern()

Removes the line pattern setting for lines. If the control is attached to a WindowKey this function restores the default value of this setting as specified by LineAttributeKit::GetDefault().

Returns

A reference to this object.

LineAttributeControl &UnsetWeight()

Removes the weight setting for lines. If the control is attached to a WindowKey this function restores the default value of this setting as specified by LineAttributeKit::GetDefault().

Returns

A reference to this object.

~LineAttributeControl()

Releases a reference to the database object this control is tied to.
