Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:
setTextBoxByRef in interface ITextBackground
Parameters:
rhs1 - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geometry.IEnvelope (in)
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

queryBoundary

public void queryBoundary(int hDC,
                          ITransformation transform,
                          IPolygon boundary)

                          AutomationException
Queries for the boundary of the text background.

Description

Use the QueryBoundary method to find the shape of a callout. This method populates a Polygon with the boundary of the callout. For a LineCallout, this is the minimum bounding rectangle of the leader line and text background box. For a BalloonCallout, this is the shape of the balloon. For a MarkerTextBackground, this is the union of the bounding box of the Marker and the Text.

Product Availability

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

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:
queryBoundary in interface ITextBackground
Parameters:
hDC - The hDC (A COM typedef) (in)
transform - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geometry.ITransformation (in)
boundary - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geometry.IPolygon (in)
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

                 ITransformation transform)
          throws IOException,
                 AutomationException
Draws the text background.

Description

The Draw method is used in a similar way to the ISymbol::Draw method. Note that ISymbol::Draw called on a TextSymbol coclass will also call ITextBackground::Draw, if a Background is set, thus drawing both the background and the text. Note that there is no Geometry required in this method; the location and size of the TextBackground is determined by the TextSymbol.
