Detailed Description

This class can provide edit handles for a given Geometry.

The given Geometry is passed to this provider as an Observable. This object allows Editor to communicate geometry changes to the IEditHandles implementations, who can use it to create and update their collection of handles. Editing changes originating from IEditHandles are communicated to the Editor or handles wrappers by calling IGeometryEditCallback. See also the related guide on editing interactions.

This class is typically used in the context of feature editing, when a feature is edited by modifying its geometry.

It has a default implementation that supports many geometries.

See the related guide for an overview of the editing API.

CanProvide()

bool Luciad.Edit.Geometries.IGeometryHandlesProvider.CanProvide	(	Luciad.Utils.Observable< Luciad.Geometries.Geometry >	geometry,
		Luciad.Edit.Features.FeatureEditContext	context
	)

Indicates if this handles provider can create handles for the given geometry.

Parameters

geometry	an observable geometry, cannot be null
context	the context. Contains additional information about the edited feature, cannot be null.

Returns

if this handles provider can provide handles and a translate action for the given Feature

Implemented in Luciad.Edit.Geometries.CompositeGeometryHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PatchHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PointHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolygonHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolylineHandlesProvider, and Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolylineRingHandlesProvider.

Provide()

Luciad.Edit.Handles.IEditHandles Luciad.Edit.Geometries.IGeometryHandlesProvider.Provide	(	Luciad.Utils.Observable< Luciad.Geometries.Geometry >	geometry,
		Luciad.Edit.Features.FeatureEditContext	context,
		Luciad.Edit.Geometries.IGeometryEditCallback	geometryEditCallback
	)

Returns the handles for the given feature.

Note: translation of features is handled by IFeatureHandlesProvider. So geometry handles providers should not provide handles to translate a geometry.

Parameters

geometry	the observable geometry for which to provide handles, cannot be null.
context	the context. Contains additional information about the edited feature, cannot be null.
geometryEditCallback	a callback that notifies the caller when the Feature has changed, cannot be null.

Returns

handles for the given feature. Never null.

Implemented in Luciad.Edit.Geometries.CompositeGeometryHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PatchHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PointHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolygonHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolylineHandlesProvider, and Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolylineRingHandlesProvider.

ProvideTranslateAction()

Luciad.Edit.Handles.ITranslateEditAction Luciad.Edit.Geometries.IGeometryHandlesProvider.ProvideTranslateAction	(	Luciad.Utils.Observable< Luciad.Geometries.Geometry >	geometry,
		Luciad.Edit.Features.FeatureEditContext	context,
		Luciad.Edit.Geometries.IGeometryEditCallback	geometryEditCallback
	)

Provides a translate action that can be used by the caller to add translation behavior.

A translation handle is typically added by an IFeatureHandlesProvider, like for example the FeatureHandlesProvider implementation. It calls this method to retrieve a translate action, and uses it to create a TranslateEditHandle.

When ITranslateEditAction.Translate is called, the returned implementation must:

• apply a translation on the geometry
• apply this IGeometryHandlesProvider's constraint (if configured) on the translated geometry
• call IGeometryEditCallback with the resulting geometry

Parameters

geometry	the observable geometry for which to provide a translate action, cannot be null
context	the context, cannot be null
geometryEditCallback	a callback that notifies the caller of this method when a translation has occurred, cannot be null

Returns

a translate action. Never null.

Implemented in Luciad.Edit.Geometries.CompositeGeometryHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PatchHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PointHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolygonHandlesProvider, Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolylineHandlesProvider, and Luciad.Edit.Geometries.PolylineRingHandlesProvider.
