Interface IBasicOverposterLayerProperties2

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

BasicOverposterLayerProperties

public interface IBasicOverposterLayerProperties2
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control the maximum distance labels/symbols are placed away from their respective features.

Superseded By

IBasicOverposterLayerProperties4

Description

Manages settings that control the placement of dynamic labels and feature-linked annotation relative to features. This interface manages generic settings that apply to all feature geometry types (point, line, and polygon). This interface also manages, or provides access to other objects that manage, placement properties that are used only when labeling or annotating a specific feature geometry type.
