Detailed Description

Geodetic Symbol specific access methods.

This class represents the access methods that are specific to a geodetic symbol. They also allow setting of the various attributes.

Rendering attributes can be set directly to this geometry using the inherited TSLEntityBase::setRendering method. This is called 'Entity Rendering'.

Rendering can be applied to a large range of geometry using 'Feature Rendering' which is set by the datalayer using TSLDataLayer::addFeatureRendering which creates a featureID. The featureID can then have attributes applied to it using TSLDataLayer::setFeatureRendering.

A featureID can be applied to geometry on creation, or it can be added later using TSLEntityBase::featureID.

Valid Rendering Attributes for TSLGeodeticSymbol:

TSLRenderingAttributeSymbolColour
TSLRenderingAttributeSymbolStyle
TSLRenderingAttributeSymbolSizeFactor
TSLRenderingAttributeSymbolSizeFactorUnits

The above is not a complete list, see TSLRenderingAttributeInt, TSLRenderingAttributeDouble and TSLRenderingAttributeBool for more details.

Known Limitations:

If points or lines pass through or near the poles or the edge of the map, the entity may be drawn incorrectly or even disappear.
If the coordinate system changes (e.g. a new map is loaded), geodetic entities will move themselves on the next draw to preserve lat/lon positions. However, if any TMC data of a geodetic entity are altered before a redraw but after a coord system change, the lat/lon data will be lost. The TMC data can be altered by move(), scale(), rotate() and translate(), and by any control point manipulation or insertion/removal of inners.
Geodetic entities do not fully "exist" until they are drawn, which means that their extents are not known until they are drawn. This can cause issues e.g. if a drawing surface has an undrawn geodetic entity, then its reset() method will zoom out a long way. This can also cause visual artefacts when manipulating interpolated entities; the entire drawing surface should always be redrawn when using them.
Geodetic entities can modify themselves when they are drawn (e.g. moving themselves, updating their envelopes, etc).
Layers containing Geodetic entities should not be shared between Drawing Surfaces.

◆ create()

static TSLGeodeticSymbol * TSLGeodeticSymbol::create	(	TSLFeatureID	featureID,
		TSLTMC	x,
		TSLTMC	y,
		TSLTMC	height = 100,
		double	rotation = 0 )

static

Creates a geodetic symbol with the specified parameters.

This call should only be used for temporary entities. For example, this call may be used to create entities that are used in the spatial tests.

Parameters

featureID	ID of the feature code to assign to the entity. This is used when rendering map features if no specific attribute set has been created for the entity.
x	X coordinate of symbol position.
y	Y coordinate of symbol position.
height	Size of symbol in TMC units.
rotation	Angle of rotation of symbol. Expressed in radians, +ve anti-clockwise from the +ve X axis.

Returns: NULL on error.

◆ height() [1/2]

Query the size of the text.

◆ height() [2/2]

void TSLGeodeticSymbol::height ( TSLTMC newValue )

Set the size of the text.

Parameters
