IDLitTool::GetVisualization

Syntax | Return Value | Arguments | Keywords | Version History

The IDLitTool::GetVisualization function method retrieves a visualization registered with the iTool object. If the requested item does not exist in the given iTool, the system will be queried to see if it supports an object of the given identifier.

Syntax

Result = Obj->[IDLitTool::]GetVisualization(Identifier [, /ALL] [, COUNT=variable])

Return Value

Returns the object descriptors constructed for the registered visualizations. (See iTool Object Identifiers (iTool Developer's Guide) for a discussion of object descriptors.)

If the ALL keyword is set, the Identifier argument is ignored and the resulting list of object descriptors will be both those registered with the specific iTool as well as those visualizations registered with the system.

Arguments

Identifier

A string containing the relative identifier of the item that is being requested. This identifier is the value provided during object registration and is either supplied using the IDENTIFIER keyword during registration, or constructed automatically by the name that is provided during the registration call. (See iTool Object Identifiers (iTool Developer's Guide) for a discussion of relative vs. fully-qualified identifiers.)

Keywords

ALL

Set this keyword to return all visualizations registered with the iTool and the system.

COUNT

Set this keyword to a variable that will contain the number of object descriptors returned by this method. (See iTool Object Identifiers (iTool Developer's Guide) for a discussion of object descriptors.)
