NAME

       GraphicCompTool - tool for instantiating graphical components

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Unidraw/Tools/grcomptool.h>

DESCRIPTION

       A  GraphicCompTool  lets the user instantiate graphical components by direct manipulation.
       The GraphicCompTool keeps a prototypical component that defines the type of  component  it
       can instantiate.

PUBLIC OPERATIONS

       GraphicCompTool(ControlInfo*, GraphicComp* prototype)
       GraphicCompTool()
              Create  a new GraphicCompTool, supplying the prototypical GraphicComp.  (You should
              not normally call the parameterless  constructor,  which  Creator  requires.)   The
              first constructor creates a graphical view of the prototype for internal use.

       virtual Manipulator* CreateManipulator(
          Viewer*, Event&, Transformer*
       )

       virtual void InterpretManipulator(Manipulator*)
              CreateManipulator  clears the editor's selection and delegates manipulator creation
              and interpretation to the graphical view of the prototype.

       GraphicComp* GetPrototype()
              Return the prototypical GraphicComp.
