Interface IScreenCanvas

All Superinterfaces:

ICanvas

All Known Implementing Classes:

CanvasAWT, CanvasNewtAwt, CanvasSwing

public interface IScreenCanvas
extends ICanvas

An IScreenCanvas defines a panel into which rendering occurs, and that can be integrated in an existing GUI. An IScreenCanvas implementation allows to render 3d content for a given Windowing toolkit:

• CanvasAWT is a base implementation suitable for AWT, Swing or SWT applications.
• CanvasNewtAwt is a new implementation (since 0.9.1) using JOGL's recommended windowing toolkit.
• CanvasSwing is a deprecated implementation for Swing (since 0.9.1)

An IScreenCanvas provides access to an Animator instance. This offers the alternative of repaint-on-demand-model based on Controllers, and repaint-continuously model based on the Animator (default behaviour). The actual IScreenCanvas initialize by a given chart will depend on:

• The Windowing toolkit parameter of the chart (new Chart("awt"))
• The Windowing toolkit parameters supported by ChartComponentFactory.initializeCanvas(...)

In other word, if creating another canvas implementation is required, simply extends the component factory.
