public interface FigureContainer
extends FigureSet, VisibleComponent

The FigureContainer interface is implemented by any visible component that can contain figures. It includes all of the methods in VisibleComponent and FigureSet, and adds methods related to containment of a known and finite set of figures.

Method Detail

add

void add(Figure f)

Add a figure to this container. The figure should be added so that it always displays above existing figures.

contains

boolean contains(Figure f)

Test if this container contains the given figure. As a general rule, the implementation of this method is not required to be efficient -- O(n) in the length of the list is acceptable. Clients should note that, in general, a much better way of making this same test is to check if the parent of the figure is the same object as this container.

Specified by:

contains in interface FigureSet

decorate

void decorate(Figure f,
              FigureDecorator d)

Decorate a child figure, replacing the child figure with the decorator.

getFigureCount

int getFigureCount()

Return the number of figures in this container.

pick

Figure pick(java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D region)

Given a rectangle, return the top-most descendent figure that hits it. Otherwise, return null. Implementors should not call their own hit() method, but only those of their children.

Note that a region is given instead of a point so that "pick halo" can be implemented. The region should not have zero size, or no figure will be hit.

pick

Figure pick(java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D region,
            Filter f)

Given a rectangle, return the top-most descendent figure that hits it, and is accepted by the given filter. Otherwise, return null. Implementors should not call their own hit() method, but only those of their children.

Note that a region is given instead of a point so that "pick halo" can be implemented. The region should not have zero size, or no figure will be hit.

remove

void remove(Figure f)

Remove the given figure from this container.

undecorate

void undecorate(FigureDecorator d)

Remove a figure from the given decorator and add it back into this container.
