Detailed Description

The superclass for all views.

vtkView is the superclass for views. A view is generally an area of an application's canvas devoted to displaying one or more VTK data objects. Associated representations (subclasses of vtkDataRepresentation) are responsible for converting the data into a displayable format. These representations are then added to the view.

For views which display only one data object at a time you may set a data object or pipeline connection directly on the view itself (e.g. vtkGraphLayoutView, vtkTreeLayoutView, vtkLandscapeView, vtkTreeMapView). The view will internally create a vtkDataRepresentation for the data.

A view has the concept of linked selection. If the same data is displayed in multiple views, their selections may be linked by setting the same vtkSelectionLink on their representations (see vtkDataRepresentation).

Events:
vtkCommand::ViewProgressEvent
Tests:
vtkView (Tests)

Meant for use by subclasses and vtkRepresentation subclasses. Call this method to register vtkObjects (generally vtkAlgorithm subclasses) which fire vtkCommand::ProgressEvent with the view.

void vtkView::SizePort ( int  i,
int  j

If the Ports is not large enough to accomodate the port indicated, then resize Ports. If Ports sizing is adequate, do nothing.

int  j 
) [protected]

Check to see if the port specified exists given current Ports sizes.

virtual vtkDataRepresentation* vtkView::CreateDefaultRepresentation ( vtkAlgorithmOutput conn  )  [protected, virtual]

Create a default vtkDataRepresentation for the given vtkAlgorithmOutput. View subclasses may override this method to create custom representations. This method is called by Add/SetRepresentationFromInputConnection. NOTE, the caller must delete the returned vtkDataRepresentation.

Reimplemented in vtkQtChartViewBase.

Subclass "hooks" for notifying subclasses of vtkView when representations are added or removed. Override these methods to perform custom actions.
