  All,

 

Here are my proposed changes in the specification for redraw control.

 

Regards,

Forrest

 

          IDL  Defination

interface WebCGMPicture : WebCGMNode { 

  readonly attribute float            width;

  readonly attribute float            height;

  readonly attribute WebCGMString     pictid;

  boolean            applyCompanionFile(in WebCGMString fileURI);

  WebCGMNode         getAppStructureById(in WebCGMString apsId);

  WebCGMNodeList     getAppStructuresByName(in WebCGMString apsName);

  void               highlight(in WebCGMNodeList nodes,

                               in boolean state);

  void               setPictureVisibility(in WebCGMString visibility);

  void               setStyleProperty(in WebCGMString style,

                                  in WebCGMString value);

  void               reloadPicture();

  void               enableRedraw(in Boolean state);

};

 

enableRedraw

Controls the redrawing of the picture after a DOM call that changes current view of the metafile. Examples would be change in style, change in visibility, pan, and zoom.  The default value is True. Note when the value is changed from False to True a redraw of the picture will occur.

 

Parameters

 

state of type Boolean

A true value will enable redraw, whereas false will disable redraw.

Return value

No return value.

Exceptions

No exceptions.
