public interface ILcdAnchoredIcon
extends ILcdIcon

An icon that provides a point within the icon that maps to the object it represents or decorates.

An an example, a crosshair is typically anchored at its center.
To make an arrow icon with its tip at (tix,tiy) and its tail at (tax, tay) point towards the object it represents, the anchor point would be (tix, tij).

ILcdAnchoredIcon does not change the behavior of the paint method: anchored icons behave similarly as non-anchored icons in that they always paint their top-left corner at the given coordinates. Hence, it is up to the caller of the paint method to deal with the anchor coordinates. The following example paints an icon around its anchor:

 // coordinates of the object you want to represent with an icon
 Point p = ...;

 Point anchor = new Point();
 icon.anchorPointSFCT(anchor);
 icon.paint(c, graphics, p.x - anchor.x, p.y - anchor.y);
