Method Detail

apply

public abstract void apply(org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC gc)

Apply this svg graphic to the given graphics context.

Note that to support the rather abstract structure of svg, each time this method is called all transformations and css properties to be calculated and applied. If this is a shape, it will be painted to the graphics context. Containers will recursively make this call on their children.

Parameters:

gc - the gc to use in all graphics operations

getDescription

public java.lang.String getDescription()

Returns:

the desc of this svg element

getTitle

public java.lang.String getTitle()

Returns the value of the title element that is a child of this svg element. If there is no title element that is a direct decendent of this element, null is returned.

Returns:

the title of this svg element
