Interface IBorder

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Subinterfaces:

ISymbolBorder

All Known Implementing Classes:

SymbolBorder

public interface IBorder
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control frame borders.

Remarks

The SymbolBorder object is used to draw borders around frame elements.

IBorder is used to manage borders properties such as the Gap between the border and the frame. The Name property defines the name of the SymbolBorder as listed in the border selector. GetGeometry will return the geometry of the border. The QueryBounds and Draw methods are equivalent to the similar methods of IElement.

See ISymbolBorder for additional control of the border.

See also IFrameDecoration.

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Method Summary

void	draw(IDisplay display, IGeometry geometry) Draws the frame border into the given display object.
double	getGap() Gap between the frame border and the subject in points.
IGeometry	getGeometry(IDisplay display, IGeometry shape) Geometry used to draw the frame border.
String	getName() Name of the frame border.
void	queryBounds(IDisplay display, IGeometry geometry, IEnvelope bounds) Bounding rectangle of the geometry including the area covered by the border.
void	setGap(double gap) Gap between the frame border and the subject in points.
void	setName(String name) Name of the frame border.
