- All Implemented Interfaces:
ILspEditor
Enables visual editing of
ILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points
objects in an ILspView.
Handles
The arc-by-3-points editor defines the following edit handles for an arc object:- Start point handle: allows the user to edit the start point of the arc. The
user can change the position of the start point by dragging the handle. This handle
generates
MOVEoperations, with aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERproperty withSTART_POINTas value. - Intermediate point handle: allows the user to edit the intermediate point of the arc.
The user can change the position of the start point by dragging the handle. This handle
generates
MOVEoperations, with aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERproperty withINTERMEDIATE_POINTas value. - End point handle: allows the user to edit the end point of the arc. The
user can change the position of the start point by dragging the handle. This handle
generates
MOVEoperations, with aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERproperty withEND_POINTas value. - Center point handle: allows the user to translate the center of the arc. The
user can change the position of the center point by dragging the handle. This handle
generates
MOVEoperations, with aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERproperty withCENTER_POINTas value. - Object translation handle: allows the user to translate the arc. This handle generates
MOVEoperations, without any additional properties.
Editing
Based on theTLspEditOperation, generated by an edit handle (see description
of handles above), this editor performs different edit operations on the associated arc object.
The images below illustrate the effect of the different handles. In each image the
gray color represents the previous state of the object and the red color represents the edited object:
-
Arc point handles: the editor adjusts the arc-by-3-points based on the new location
of the arc point. The figure below illustrates this behaviour when the start point of the arc
is moved (indicated by the black arrow).

-
Center point handle: the editor translates the entire arc. The figure below illustrates
this behaviour.

-
Object translation handle: the editor translates the entire arc. Note that the behaviour
for this handle is identical to the behaviour of the center point handle, with the exception of
how the handle is activated
Creation
The creation process of an arc-by-3-points object consists of the following steps:- the first step sets the start point of the arc-by-3-points
- the second step sets the end point of the arc-by-3-points
- the third step sets the intermediate point of the arc-by-3-points

Method Details
-
canEdit
Returnstrueifsuperreturnstrueand the given object is an instance ofILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points.- Specified by:
canEditin interfaceILspEditor- Overrides:
canEditin classALspEditor- Parameters:
aContext- provides context information to the editor- Returns:
trueif the above conditions are met,falseotherwise.
-
getEditHandles
Returns a set of handles for editing the given object. These handles will be able to generate edit operations, that are passed to theeditmethod. As a way to communicate with this method, handles will copy their properties to the edit operation properties. By default this method delegates to the following methods: It returns a list containing the handles returned by those methods. These methods are added for convenience, so they can easily be overridden.- Parameters:
aContext- provides context information such as the layer for which the object is being edited- Returns:
- the edit handles to edit the given object, or an empty list if it should not be possible to edit the given object.
- See Also:
-
createObjectTranslationHandle
protected ALspEditHandle createObjectTranslationHandle(ILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points aArc, TLspEditContext aContext) Creates an edit handle that allows the user to translate the given shape. By default this is aTLspObjectTranslationHandle.- Parameters:
aArc- the shape for which the handle is createdaContext- the current context- Returns:
- an edit handle or
nullif no handle is needed
-
createCenterHandle
protected ALspEditHandle createCenterHandle(ILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points aArc, TLspEditContext aContext) Creates an edit handle that allows the user to translate the given arc by translating its center point. By default this method returns aTLspPointTranslationHandlewith aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERuser property withCENTER_POINTas value.- Parameters:
aArc- the arc for which the handle is createdaContext- the current context- Returns:
- an edit handle or
nullwhen no handle is needed
-
createStartPointHandle
protected ALspEditHandle createStartPointHandle(ILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points aArc, TLspEditContext aContext) Creates an edit handle that allows the user to edit the given arc by translating its start point. By default this method returns aTLspPointTranslationHandlewith aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERuser property withSTART_POINTas value.- Parameters:
aArc- the arc for which the handle is createdaContext- the current context- Returns:
- an edit handle or
nullwhen no handle is needed
-
createIntermediatePointHandle
protected ALspEditHandle createIntermediatePointHandle(ILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points aArc, TLspEditContext aContext) Creates an edit handle that allows the user to edit the given arc by translating an intermediate point. By default this method returns aTLspPointTranslationHandlewith aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERuser property withINTERMEDIATE_POINTas value.- Parameters:
aArc- the arc for which the handle is createdaContext- the current context- Returns:
- an edit handle or
nullwhen no handle is needed
-
createEndPointHandle
protected ALspEditHandle createEndPointHandle(ILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points aArc, TLspEditContext aContext) Creates an edit handle that allows the user to edit the given arc by translating its end point. By default this method returns aTLspPointTranslationHandlewith aHANDLE_IDENTIFIERuser property withEND_POINTas value.- Parameters:
aArc- the arc for which the handle is createdaContext- the current context- Returns:
- an edit handle or
nullwhen no handle is needed
-
getCreateHandle
Returns a handle that is used to create the given object. The returned handle is used by the controller to initialize the other of the object. Typically the returned handle is an instance ofALspCreateHandlewhich is a specialized handle implementation used for creating an object. By default, this method returns anALspCreateHandlecapable of creating anILcd2DEditableCircularArcBy3Points, as described in the class javadoc.- Parameters:
aContext- provides context information such as the layer for which the object is being created- Returns:
- an edit handle, or
nullif creation should not be allowed. - See Also:
-
editImpl
protected TLspEditOperationResult editImpl(TLspEditOperation aOperation, ELspInteractionStatus aInteractionStatus, TLspEditContext aContext) Called by theeditmethod to edit the given object based on the givenedit operation. Note that this method does not need to lock the model of the object, this already happens in theeditmethod. By default, this editor can handle the following operations: If any of the operations contains theHANDLE_IDENTIFIERproperty, with aHandleIdentifieras value, then this editor will only perform the operation on that particular point, otherwise it will perform it on the entire object.- Specified by:
editImplin classALspEditor- Parameters:
aOperation- the event that contains the information on how to edit the objectaInteractionStatus- the interaction statusaContext- the edit context- Returns:
- The result of the operation: Whether or not there was success, and whether or not the current handles of the object should be invalidated.
