TSLWinHighlightManager Class Reference

Detailed Description

This is a custom highlight manager, which highlights according to windows conventions. A selection box, optionally with scale and rotate grab handles, is drawn around all selected entities. In addition, individual entities may be highlighted. Different style highlighting may be applied to the first entity on the select list, thus introducing a primary/secondary selection concept.

This highlight manager may invoke the TSLWinScaleOperation or TSLWinRotate Operation if the grab handles are used.

The rendering and grab-handle styles are configured in the .ini file. Current options and example values include:

; SelectionStyle 0=Box only, 1=individual, 2=Box and individual (primary=first entity) winHighlightSelectionStyle=2 winHighlightSelectionPrimaryLineStyle=1 winHighlightSelectionPrimaryLineColour=186 winHighlightSelectionPrimaryLineWidth=3 winHighlightSelectionSecondaryLineStyle=6 winHighlightSelectionSecondaryLineColour=186 winHighlightSelectionSecondaryLineWidth=2 winHighlightGap=5 winHighlightBoxStyle=1 winHighlightBoxColour=31 winHighlightBoxWidth=1
