Interface ICustomGlobeLayer

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

GlobeGraphicsLayer, ICustomGlobeLayerProxy, TemporalFeatureLayer

public interface ICustomGlobeLayer
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that define custom globe layers.

Description

There are 3 types of custom layers in Globe.
GlobeCustomLayers::CustomLayerByTile, GlobeCustomLayers::Rasterized,GlobeCustomLayers::OpenGL
The class GlobeCustomLayers illustrates usage for all 3 cases.
Any type of custom layer in globe needs to implement, ICustomGlobeLayer, ILayer, IGeoDataset, ILayerExtensions.
