                               Object Library


The Object Library is responsible for the drawing and manipulation of AES
objects such as boxes, strings, icons, etc. See earlier in this chapter
for a complete discussion of AES objects. The Object Library includes the
following functions:

   ∙ objc_add()      add an object to a tree
   ∙ objc_change()   change object state (and redraw)
   ∙ objc_delete()   remove an object from a tree
   ∙ objc_draw()     display all or part of an object tree
   ∙ objc_edit()     perform formatted text edit operations
   ∙ objc_find()     locate object under mouse (given x,y location)
   ∙ objc_offset()   return screen coordinates for object
   ∙ objc_order()    change position of child object
   ∙ objc_sysvar()   returns/modifies information about 3D object effects
