The Text Objects: 1.2 The Text Objects: How this Chapter is Organized

| Up: GEOS SDK TechDocs | Up | Prev: 1.1 Which Object Should I Use? | Next: 2 General Text Features

This chapter is organized in a special fashion. Not including this section, the contents of this chapter are:

10.2
A description of some of the more powerful features of the text objects.
10.3
A complete list of the features defined within the text object library, for use with both GenText and VisText.
10.4
An in-depth description of the common ways to change text and attributes within a text object. These are the most commonly used operations for text objects.
10.5
A description in detail of the VisText object.
10.6
A description in detail of the GenText object.
10.7
A description of the controllers specifically tailored for use with the text objects.

If you are using a simple GenText object for getting and setting text, you will probably only need to read the in-depth description of how to alter text and the GenText section. If you need other functionality, you should probably read this chapter straight through.
