- Defaults
-
- These are the defaults used/set by the Spin module.
-
- AngleIncrement
- NumberOfSpinners
- Radius
- TailLength
- XIncrement
- YIncrement
-
- These directly correspond to the controls in the
- inspector. All defaults are updated at the time the control
- is adjusted.
-
- All defaults can be read/written using the NeXT supplied
- commands dread and dwrite. The owner of the defaults is
- SpinView. The program is cautious about using defaults
- and will always check for out of bounds defaults. Any
- defaults found out of bounds will be set to the closest
- in bounds value.
