This section describes the attributes of the two document control classes,
GenDocumentControlClass
and
GenDocumentGroupClass
, as well as of the
GenDocumentClass
. Note that GenDocument objects are created at run-time, and their attributes are initialized by the creating GenDocumentGroup object. However, their attributes can be changed with the appropriate messages.
Many of the messages to the GenDocumentControl have corresponding messages to the GenDocumentGroup. For example, to find out the GenDocumentControl's attributes, one can either send a
MSG_GEN_DOCUMENT_CONTROL_GET_ATTRS
to the GenDocumentControl or send a
MSG_GEN_DOCUMENT_GROUP_GET_UI_ATTRS
to the GenDocumentGroup. In either case, the message will return the same result. It is sometimes more convenient to send a message to the GenDocumentGroup object; for example, a document object can do this with
@call @genParent::<message>
.
