APPENDIX A - Classes Property Grid Hook Point |
|---|
An instance of this DRM class is used to "instance" a <Property Grid> into the spatial scope of an <Environment Root> or <Model>. In particular, the origin of the spatial axes of a component <Property Grid> is located at the <Property Grid Hook Point>'s component <Location>.
Since a <Property Grid Hook Point> separates a <Property Grid>'s cell data from the <Location> of its origin, <Property Grid> instances can be shared by several <Property Grid Hook Point> instances.
Consider a 1-dimensional <Property Grid> classified as ECC_WATER_BODY_BATHYMETRY_PROPERTY_SET that contains a depth axis only. The <Property Grid Hook Point> <Location> serves to position this grid into the currently scoped 'world' spatial reference frame.
Consider a 2-dimensional <Property Grid> instance classified as ECC_TERRAIN_ELEVATION that contains elevation relative to the south-west corner of the grid. The <Property Grid Hook Point> instance's <Location> component serves to position this grid corner into the currently scoped 'world' spatial reference frame.
A <Property Grid Hook Point> instance connecting a <Property Grid> instance of terrain elevation data from DTED to the geometry of an <Environment Root> instance.
No, the hook point <Location> serves several purposes.
Since the spatial axes are relative, the hook <Location> provides the axis offset origins.
It makes a <Location> associated with the grid visible to API search filters (in the currently scoped 'world' spatial reference frame).
An association between a <Feature Representation> instance and a <Geometry Hierarchy> instance indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.
An association between two <Geometry Hierarchy> instances indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.
An association between a <Feature Representation> instance and a <Geometry Hierarchy> instance indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.
An association between two <Geometry Hierarchy> instances indicates that the environmental object(s) that they represent have the semantic relationship indicated by the <Base Association Data> instance on the association relationship.
An association from a <Hierarchy Summary Item> instance to a <Geometry Hierarchy> indicates that the <Hierarchy Summary Item> summarizes that <Geometry Hierarchy>.
An association from a <Reference Surface> instance to a <Geometry Hierarchy> indicates that the <Geometry Hierarchy> organizes the geometric objects that specify the resolution surface of the <Reference Surface>.
