NAME
bevel_ic -- create bevel BOOPSI objects
SUPERCLASS
imageclass
REQUIRES
None.
DESCRIPTION
This image class can create a varity of bevel boxes styles
including those appropriate as gadget borders, titled or
non-titled grouping boxes and more. This class is very similar
in function to the frameiclass in OS 3.x rom, except this class
supports the newer style bevels under OS 2.04 as well.
METHODS
OM_NEW -- Create the bevel image. Passed to superclass, then OM_SET.
OM_GET -- Get object attributes. Passed to superclass first.
OM_SET -- Set object attributes. Passed to superclass first.
IM_FRAMEBOX -- Initial attempt at this method, totally
untested at this time. If you know what it is and need it
then try it and report any bugs. :)
IM_DRAW -- Renders the images. Overrides the superclass.
IM_DRAWFRAME -- Renders the images at the frame size.
Any following IM_DRAW will be at this frame size w/o a
overriding OM_SET. Overrides the superclass.
IM_ERASE -- Erase the images. Overrides the superclass.
IM_ERASEFRAME -- Erase the images at the frame size.
Overrides the superclass.
All other methods are passed to the superclass, including OM_DISPOSE.
ATTRIBUTES
IA_Top (WORD)
IA_Left (WORD)
IA_Width (WORD)
IA_Height (WORD)
Set bevel image size and position.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_SupportsDisable (BOOL)
Reports TRUE if the image class can render its own
disable pattern.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
IA_APattern (UWORD *)
Optional inner fill pattern for SetAfPt() when used in
conjunction with BEVEL_FillPen. See also BEVEL_FillPattern.
I missed the OS support of this tag, thus, it is duplicated
in BEVEL_FillPattern which will remain for backwards
compatibility.
Defaults to NULL.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_APatSize (UWORD)
Set pattern size for the pattern passed via IA_APattern.
Defaults to 1. With BEVEL_FillPattern, the size was fixed.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_Recessed
Inverts SHADOW/SHINEPEN and shading rendering pens.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_EdgesOnly
See BEVEL_Transparent.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_FrameType
Accepts all frameiclass frame types, and converts them
the closest matching BEVEL_Style type honoring the
current user preference settings.
Applicability is (OM_SET)
IA_Font (struct TextAttr *)
Text Attribute to use for any label text.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_HighlightPen (UWORD)
IA_FGPen (UWORD)
Foreground pen.
Defaults to SHINEPEN.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
IA_ShadowPen (UWORD)
IA_BGPen (UWORD)
Background pen.
Defaults to SHADOWPEN.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_FillPen (WORD)
Inner bevel area RectFill() pen number, ~0 means to
ignore, and not to RectFill().
Defaults to ~0.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_FillPattern (UWORD *)
Optional inner fill pattern for SetAfPt() when used in
conjunction with BEVEL_FillPen. See also: IA_APattern
Defaults to NULL.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_TextPen (WORD)
Bevel text rendering pen number, ~0 will render
in TEXTPEN.
Defaults to ~0.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_Style (BOOL)
Specifies the bevel box style, may be one of the following;
BVS_THIN - thin/small bevel
BVS_BUTTON - standard button bevel (thin/thick pref)
BVS_GROUP - layout/grouping bevel (thin/thick pref)
BVS_FIELD - string/inputfield bevel (thin/thick pref)
BVS_NONE - no bevel
BVS_DROPBOX - standard dropbox
BVS_SBAR_HORIZ - horizontal separator bar
BVS_SBAR_VERT - vertical separator bar
BVS_BOX - plain "black" box bevel
BVS_STANDARD - Simular to BVS_BUTTON, but no XEN!
Defaults to BVS_BUTTON
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_Label (STRPTR)
Specifies the text label for the bevel box.
Defaults to NULL.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_LabelPlace (WORD)
Specifies label location, may be one of the following;
BVJ_TOP_CENTER
BVJ_TOP_LEFT
BVJ_TOP_RIGHT
BVJ_IN_CENTER
BVJ_IN_LEFT
BVJ_IN_RIGHT
Defaults to BVJ_TOP_CENTER.
NOTE: BVS_BOTTOM_* settings not yet implemented
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_InnerTop (WORD)
Get only attribute, returns the inside-top offset of the
bevel box accounting for any BVJ_TOP text label placements.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
BEVEL_InnerLeft (WORD)
Get only attribute, returns the inside-left offset of the
bevel box.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
BEVEL_InnerWidth (WORD)
Get only attribute, returns the inside-width of the
bevel box, basically the same as;
IA_Width - (BEVEL_VertSize * 2) - 1
Except this also accounts for the BVS_TOP label placements.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
BEVEL_InnerHeight (WORD)
Get only attribute, returns the inside - height of the
bevel box, basically the same as;
IA_Height - (BEVEL_InnerTop + BEVEL_HorzSize) - 1
with the exception that BEVEL_InnerHeight will account for
any text label for a BVS_GROUP style bevel.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
BEVEL_HorizSize (WORD)
Get only attribute, returns the nominal size (in pixels) of
the horizontal lines the bevel will draw for the givel style.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
BEVEL_VertSize (WORD)
Get only attribute, returns the nominal size (in pixels) of
the vertical lines the bevel will draw for the given style.
Applicability is (OM_GET)
BEVEL_SoftStyle (WORD)
Font softstyles to apply.
See <graphics/text.h> SoftStyle definitions.
Defaults to 0.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)

part of the inner area of the bevel.
Defaults to FALSE.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_ColorMap (struct ColorMap *)
Screen viewport colormap pointer, use to obtain additional
best-match pens for XEN and possibly other future multi-pen
beveling options. MWB or NI3 palette recommended for best
results.
Defaults to NULL.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)
BEVEL_Flags (UWORD)
Intentionally left undocumented! It is used for some hidden
BVS_BUTTON xen style magic. Class authors inquire as needed.
Defaults to 0.
Applicability is (OM_NEW, OM_SET)

BEVEL STYLE
Several ReAction objects allow overriding the default bevel
style. This is NOT recommended practice for application authors.
But instead, its provided to add some extra flexability to BOOPSI
class authors who may wish to sub-class a ReAction gadget or
utilize it within a larger composite (model class) object.
When using bevel.image directly be sure to select the appropriate
bevel for your usage. Do not provide a bevel style override tag
unless it makes sence to do so. The idea being that all applications
and BOOPSI objects should be presented using a standard beveling
style. For example, a button gadget using a BVS_FIELD string bevel
would be an illogical choice. Any button should use BVS_BUTTON, a
text entry field should use BVS_FIELD, and ofcourse a layout group,
if using a bevel, should use BVS_GROUP, BVS_SBAR_VERT or
BVS_SBAR_HORIZ.

NAME
BEVEL_GetClass -- Gets the pointer to the bevel class.
SYNOPSIS
bevel_class = BEVEL_GetClass();
D0
Class * BEVEL_GetClass(VOID);
FUNCTION
Obtains the pointer to the Bevel image class for use with
NewObject(). This function always returns a valid pointer so
you do not need to check it. The reason is that if the library
opens fine, then the pointer returned is already setup. (Of course
this implies that if opening the library fails, you shouldn't be
calling this.)
Note that this function does not create the class, that is done
when the class library is opened.
INPUTS
Nothing.
RESULT
bevel_class - Pointer to the Bevel image class.
