Using Object Class Definitions

Object class definitions describe what objects that belong to a particular class have in common. This guide contains object class definitions for system objects (in this chapter) and Scriptable Text Editor objects (in Appendix B). This section describes the information contained in object class definitions.

Figure 5-1 shows a sample object class definition for a paragraph object. The definition contains four types of information: properties, element classes, commands handled, and default value class returned. The sections that follow describe the kinds of information provided by an object class definition.
