Intermediate API Functions

Detailed Description

This group contains functions of the GLG Intermediate API.

These functions provide additional methods that can be used to traverse all objects defined in the drawing to discover the structure of the drawing, perform coordinate conversion or implement custom object manipulation, such as dragging objects with the mouse.

It also includes:

• Functions to modify objects in the drawing and save the modified drawing, as well as to perform various object queries.
• Specialized Chart functions to prefill a chart and handle used interaction with the chart.
• Functions for implementing custom interaction handlers.
• Interface Handler functions used in the editor-style applications that need to implement complex state-based user interaction.
