NAME

       Scene, MonoScene - composite interactors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <InterViews/scene.h>

DESCRIPTION

       Scene  is  the  base  class  for  all interactors that are defined in terms of one or more
       instances of other interactors.  MonoScene is a subclass for scenes that contain a  single
       instance.   A monoscene's shape is copied from its component and the component's canvas is
       given the same size and location as the monoscene's canvas.

       When a scene is deleted, it should delete all  its  component  interactors.   A  monoscene
       deletes its existing component if a new component is inserted.

PUBLIC OPERATIONS

       void Insert(Interactor*)
       void Insert(Interactor*, Coord x, Coord y, Alignment = BottomLeft)
       virtual Interactor* Wrap(Interactor*)
       virtual void DoInsert(Interactor*, boolean, Coord& x, Coord& y, Shape*)
              Add  an  interactor  to  the  scene,  optionally aligned with respect to a specific
              position relative to the lower-left corner of the scene.  Valid alignment types are
              TopLeft,   TopCenter,   TopRight,   CenterLeft,  Center,  CenterRight,  BottomLeft,
              BottomCenter, BottomRight, Left, Right, Top, Bottom, HorizCenter,  and  VertCenter.
              The  scene  uses  the interactor's desired shape, if it has non-zero width, to size
              the interactor.  The base scene class always calls Wrap and DoInsert  from  Insert;
              thus  subclasses  only implement DoInsert (and Wrap if they want to wrap additional
              interactors around the inserted interactor) and users only  call  Insert.   In  the
              case  of  a  monoscene, the current interior interactor, if not nil, is deleted and
              replaced by the given interactor.  If an interactor is inserted into a  scene  that
              is  already  mapped,  the  interactor and its descendants will be configured before
              DoInsert is called.

       void Propagate(boolean)
       void Change(Interactor*)
       virtual void DoChange(Interactor*, Shape*)
              Change notifies a scene that a given interactor has changed its desired shape.   If
              the propagate flag associated with the scene is true, Change will call DoChange and
              then Change(this) on the scene's parent.  If the propagate flag  is  false,  Resize
              will  be called instead.  The propagate flag is true by default and can be set with
              the Propagate operation.

       void Move(Interactor*, Coord x, Coord y, Alignment = BottomLeft)
       virtual void DoMove(Interactor*, Coord& x, Coord& y)
              Request that an interactor be moved  to  the  given  coordinates  using  the  given
              alignment.   As  with  Insert  and Change, users call Move and subclasses implement
              DoMove.

       void Remove(Interactor*)
       virtual void DoRemove(Interactor*)
              Remove an interactor from a scene.  Users  call  Remove  and  subclasses  implement
              DoRemove.

       void Lower(Interactor*)
       virtual void DoLower(Interactor*)
              Put  the  interactor's  canvas below all others in the scene, potentially obscuring
              it.  Users call Lower and subclasses implement DoLower.

       void Raise(Interactor*)
       virtual void DoRaise(Interactor*)
              Put the interactor's canvas above all others in the scene, making it fully visible.
              Users call Raise and subclasses implement DoRaise.

PROTECTED OPERATIONS

       Scene()
       MonoScene()
              Construct  a  new  scene or monoscene.  Scenes and monoscenes are abstract classes;
              thus, the constructors should only be called implicitly by subclass constructors.

       void Place(Interactor*, Coord x1, Coord y1, Coord x2, Coord y2, boolean = true)
              Assign an interactor's canvas to be a given region of the scene's  canvas.   Unless
              the  optional  sixth  parameter  is  false,  the interactor will be mapped.  If the
              interactor is already assigned the given position and  size,  then  this  operation
              will  have  no  effect.   This optimization means that a scene can place all of its
              elements in response to a Change and be assured that only those elements that  have
              really changed will be redrawn.

       void Map(Interactor*, boolean = true)
              Make  the  interactor  visible  on  the  display  if and when the scene is visible.
              Unless the optional second parameter is false, the interactor will be raised to the
              top of the scene.

       void Unmap(Interactor*)
              Make the interactor not be visible on the display if and when the scene is visible.

       void UserPlace(Interactor*, int w, int h)
              Let  the  user interact with the window manager to specify the size and location of
              the interactor's canvas, whose default width and height must also  be  supplied  by
              the program.
