Floating ViewpointControl Question
Hi Don and Jeff,
During the course of a McV meeting we began wondering about making
ViewpointControls dockable, so I decided to look around the IDV sources.
I saw the various calls along the lines of "vpc.setFloatable(false)" and
that the various data members I could use to get access to
ViewPointControl.getToolBar() are protected, so I can't think of any
reason why I couldn't just write a plugin that grabs the current VPC and
enables floating/docking.
Does this assumption seem reasonable? Is there any reason that they
aren't already capable of doing this? I ask due to the images in
sections 4.3.1 and 4.3.2 of the user's guide looking like floating is
enabled.
