deferred class InteractiveObject from AIS inherits SelectableObject from SelectMgr

        ---Purpose: 
    	-- Defines a class of objects with display and selection services.
    	-- Entities which are visualized and selected are
    	-- Interactive Objects. You can make use of classes of
    	-- standard Interactive Objects for which all necessary
    	-- methods have already been programmed, or you can
    	-- implement your own classes of Interactive Objects.
    	-- Specific attributes of entities such as arrow aspect for
    	-- dimensions must be loaded in a Drawer. This Drawer
    	-- is then applied to the Interactive Object in view.
    	-- There are four types of Interactive Object in AIS: the
    	-- construction element or Datum, the Relation, which
    	-- includes both dimensions and constraints, the Object,
    	-- and finally, when the object is of an unknown type, the None type.
    	-- Inside these categories, a signature, or index,
    	-- provides the possibility of additional characterization.
    	-- By default, the Interactive Object has a None type
    	-- and a signature of 0. If you want to give a particular
    	-- type and signature to your interactive object, you must
    	-- redefine the methods, Signature and Type.
    	-- Warning
    	-- In the case of attribute methods, methods for
    	-- standard attributes are virtual. They must be
    	-- redefined   by the inheriting classes. Setcolor for a
    	-- point and Setcolor for a plane, for example, do not
    	-- affect the same attributes in the Drawer.

    Initialize (aTypeOfPresentation3d: TypeOfPresentation3d from PrsMgr = PrsMgr_TOP_AllView) ;
    	---Purpose: The TypeOfPresention3d means that the interactive object
    	--          may have a presentation dependant of the view of Display
    

    
            ---Category: Virtual methods to be redefined...
        
    Type     (me) returns KindOfInteractive from AIS is virtual;
    	---Purpose:
    	-- Returns the kind of Interactive Object:
    	-- -   None
    	-- -   Datum
    	-- -   Relation
    	-- -   Object
    	--   By default, the   interactive object has a None type.
    	-- Because specific shapes entail different behavior
    	-- according to their sub-shapes, you may need to
    	-- create a Local Context. This will allow you to
    	-- specify the additional characteristics which you
    	-- need to handle these shapes.
    
    Signature(me) returns Integer from Standard is virtual;
    	---Purpose: Specifies additional characteristics of Interactive
    	-- Objects. A signature is, in fact, an index with integer
    	-- values assigned different properties.
    	-- This method is frequently used in conjuction with
    	-- Type to give a particular type and signature to an
    	-- Interactive Object. By default, the Interactive Object
    	-- has a None type and a signature of 0. Among the
    	-- datums, this signature is attributed to the shape
    	-- The remaining datums have the following default signatures:
    	-- -   Point                   signature 1
    	-- -   Axis                     signature 2
    	-- -   Trihedron                signature 3
    	-- -   PlaneTrihedron            signature 4
    	-- -   Line                     signature 5
    	-- -   Circle                  signature 6
    	-- -   Plane                   signature 7.
    
        
    AcceptShapeDecomposition(me) returns Boolean from Standard is virtual;
        ---C++: inline
    	---Purpose:  Informs the graphic context that the interactive Object
    	-- may be decomposed into sub-shapes for dynamic selection.
    	-- The most used Interactive Object is AIS_Shape.
    	-- Activation methods for standard selection modes are
    	-- proposed in the Interactive Context. These include
    	-- selection by vertex or by edges. For datums with the
    	-- same behavior as AIS_Shape, such as vetices and
    	-- edges, we must redefine the virtual method so that
    	-- AcceptShapeDecomposition returns false.
	    --      Rule for selection : 
	    --        Mode 0 :  Selection of  the interactive Object itself
	    --        Mode 1 :  Selection of vertices
	    --        Mode 2 :  Selection Of Edges
	    --        Mode 3 :  Selection Of Wires
	    --        Mode 4 :  Selection Of Faces ... 
    

    SetCurrentFacingModel(me: mutable;
               aModel: TypeOfFacingModel from Aspect = Aspect_TOFM_BOTH_SIDE);
	---Purpose: change the current facing model apply on polygons for
	-- SetColor(), SetTransparency(), SetMaterial() methods
	-- default facing model is Aspect_TOFM_TWO_SIDE. This mean that attributes is
	-- applying both on the front and back face.

    CurrentFacingModel(me) returns TypeOfFacingModel from Aspect;
    	---Purpose: Returns the current facing model which is in effect.

    SetColor(me:mutable;aColor:Color from Quantity) is virtual;

    SetColor(me:mutable;aColor:NameOfColor from Quantity) is virtual;
    	---Purpose: only the interactive obj knowns which Drawer attribute
    	--          is  affected by the color  (ex:  for a  wire, it's the
    	--          wireaspect field of the drawer, but  for a vertex, only
    	--          the point aspect field is affected by the color)
    	--          WARNING : Do not forget to set the corresponding fields
    	--          here (hasOwnColor and myOwnColor)
    
    UnsetColor(me:mutable) is virtual;
    	---Purpose: Removes color settings. Only the Interactive Object
    	-- knows which Drawer attribute is   affected by the color
    	-- setting. For a wire, for example, wire aspect is the
    	-- attribute affected. For a vertex, however, only point
    	-- aspect is affected by the color setting.
 
    SetWidth(me:mutable; aValue:Real from Standard) is virtual;
    	---Purpose: Allows you to provide the setting aValue for width.
    	-- Only the Interactive Object knows which Drawer
    	-- attribute is affected by the width setting.

    UnsetWidth(me:mutable) is virtual;
    
    AcceptDisplayMode(me;aMode:Integer from Standard) returns Boolean from  Standard is virtual;
    	---Purpose: Returns true if the class of objects accepts the display mode aMode.
    	-- The interactive context can have a default mode of
    	-- representation for the set of Interactive Objects. This
    	-- mode may not be accepted by a given class of
    	-- objects. Consequently, this virtual method allowing us
    	-- to get information about the class in question must be implemented.
    DefaultDisplayMode(me) returns Integer from Standard is virtual;
    	---Purpose: Returns the default display mode. This method is to
    	-- be implemented when the main mode is not mode 0.


    Redisplay (me:mutable; AllModes:Boolean from Standard =Standard_False); 
    	---Purpose: Updates the active presentation; if <AllModes> = Standard_True
    	--          all the presentations inside are recomputed. 
    

    SetInfiniteState(me:mutable;aFlag:Boolean from Standard = Standard_True);
    	---Purpose: Sets the infinite state flag aFlage.
    	-- if   <aFlag>   = True  ,  the   interactiveObject  is
    	--          considered as infinite, i.e. its graphic presentations
    	--          are not taken in account for View FitAll...
    
    IsInfinite(me) returns Boolean from Standard;
      	---C++: inline
      	---Purpose:
      	-- Returns true if the interactive object is infinite. In this
      	-- case, its graphic presentations are not taken into
      	-- account in the fit-all view.

   
                    ---Category: Link To InteractiveContext

    HasInteractiveContext(me) returns Boolean from Standard;
    	---Purpose: Indicates whether the Interactive Object has a pointer
    	-- to an interactive context.
        
    GetContext(me) returns InteractiveContext from AIS;
    	---Purpose: Returns the context pointer to the interactive context.
        
    SetContext(me:mutable; aCtx : InteractiveContext from AIS) is virtual;
    	---Purpose:  Sets the interactive context aCtx and provides a link
    	-- to the default drawing tool or "Drawer" if there is none.
    
    HasOwner (me) returns Boolean from Standard;
    	---Purpose: Returns true if the object has an owner attributed to it.
    	-- The owner can be a shape for a set of sub-shapes or
    	-- a sub-shape for sub-shapes which it is composed of,
    	-- and takes the form of a transient.
        
    GetOwner (me) returns any Transient from Standard;
    	---Purpose: Returns the owner of the Interactive Object.
    	-- The owner can be a shape for a set of sub-shapes or
    	-- a sub-shape for sub-shapes which it is composed of,
    	-- and takes the form of a transient.
    	-- There are two types of owners:
    	-- -   Direct owners, decomposition shapes such as
    	--   edges, wires, and faces.
    	-- -   Users, presentable objects connecting to sensitive
    	--   primitives, or a shape which has been decomposed.
    	---C++: inline
    	---C++: return const&
    
    
    
    SetOwner (me                : mutable; 
              ApplicativeEntity : Transient from  Standard);
   	---Purpose: Allows you to attribute the owner ApplicativeEntity to
    	-- an Interactive Object. This can be a shape for a set of
    	-- sub-shapes or a sub-shape for sub-shapes which it
    	-- is composed of. The owner takes the form of a transient.
        ---C++: inline
         
    ClearOwner(me:mutable);    
    	---Purpose: Each Interactive Object has methods which allow us
    	-- to attribute an Owner to it in the form of a Transient.
    	-- This method removes the owner from the graphic entity.    
    
    
    HasUsers(me) returns Boolean from Standard;
    
    Users(me) returns ListOfTransient from TColStd;

    HasDisplayMode (me)
    returns Boolean from Standard;
    	---Purpose:
    	-- Returns true if the Interactive Object has a display
    	-- mode setting. Otherwise, it is displayed in Neutral Point.
   	---C++: inline

    SetDisplayMode(me : mutable; aMode : Integer from Standard);
    	---Purpose: Sets the display mode aMode for the interactive object.
    	-- An object can have its own temporary display mode,
    	-- which is different from that proposed by the interactive context.
    	-- The range of possibilities currently proposed is the following:
    	-- -   AIS_WireFrame
    	-- -   AIS_Shaded
    	-- -   AIS_QuickHLR
    	-- -   AIS_ExactHLR
    	--   This range can, however, be extended through the creation of new display modes.
    
    UnsetDisplayMode(me : mutable);
    	---Purpose: Removes display mode settings from the interactive object.
    	---C++: inline

    DisplayMode(me)
    returns Integer;

    	--   This range can, however, be extended through the
    	-- creation of new display modes.


    HasSelectionMode(me) returns Boolean from Standard;
    	---Purpose: Allows you to change the selection mode of an
    	-- Interactive Object.
    	-- The default selection mode setting is 0.
    	-- For shapes, for example, the selection modes are as follows:
    	-- -   mode 0 - selection of the shape itself
    	-- -   mode 1 - selection of vertices
    	-- -   mode 2 - selection of edges
    	-- -   mode 3 - selection of wires
    	-- -   mode 4 - selection of faces
    	-- -   mode 5 - selection of shells
    	-- -   mode 6 - selection of solids
    	-- -   mode 7 - selection of compounds
    	--   For trihedra, on the other hand, the selection modes are the following four:
    	-- -   mode 0 - selection of a trihedron
    	-- -   mode 1 - selection of its origin
    	-- -   mode 2 - selection of its axes
    	-- -   mode 3 - selection of its planes    
    
    SelectionMode(me) returns Integer from Standard;

    SetSelectionMode(me:mutable; aMode: Integer from Standard);
    	---Purpose: You can change the default selection mode index
    	-- aMode of an Interactive Object.
    	-- This is only of interest if you decide that mode 0
    	-- adopted by convention will not do.    
    
    UnsetSelectionMode(me:mutable);
    	---Purpose: You can change the default selection mode index of
    	-- an Interactive Object.
    	-- This is only of interest if you decide that the 0 mode
    	-- adopted by convention will not do.
 	---C++: inline

    
    SelectionPriority(me) returns Integer from Standard;
        ---C++: inline
    	---Purpose: Returns the selection priority setting. -1 indicates that there is none.
    	-- You can modify the selection priority of an owner to
    	-- make one entity more selectionable than another one.
    	-- The default selection priority for an owner is 5, for
    	-- example. To increase selection priority, choose a
    	-- setting between 5 and 10. An entity with priority 7 will
    	-- take priority over one with a setting of 6 if both
    	-- objects are selected at the same time.
    	-- You could give vertices priority 8, edges priority 7,
    	-- faces priority 6, and shapes priority 5. If a vertex, an
    	-- edge and a face are simultaneously detected during
    	-- selection, only the vertex will then be highlighted.
    	-- For trihedra, for example, the default priorities are the following four:
    	-- -   priority 1 - a trihedron
    	-- -   priority 5 - its origin
    	-- -   priority 3 - its axes
    	-- -   priority 2 - its planes
        
    SetSelectionPriority(me:mutable; aPriority : Integer from Standard); 
    	---C++: inline
    	---Purpose: Allows you to provide a setting aPriority for selection priority.
    	-- You can modify selection priority of an owner to make
    	-- one entity more selectionable than another one. The

    	---Purpose: Removes the setting for selection priority. SelectionPriority then returns -1.
        
    HasSelectionPriority(me) returns Boolean from Standard;
    	---C++: inline
    	---Purpose: Returns true if there is a setting for selection priority.
    	-- You can modify selection priority of an owner to make
    	-- one entity more selectionable than another one. The

    	---Purpose: Returns true if the Interactive Object is in highlight mode.
 
   HilightMode(me) returns Integer from Standard ;
     	---C++: inline
     	---Purpose: Returns the setting for highlight mode.
    	-- At dynamic detection, the presentation echoed by the
    	-- Interactive Context, is by default the presentation
    	-- already on the screen. You can specify a Highlight
    	-- presentation mode which is valid no matter what the
    	-- active representation of the object. It makes no
    	-- difference whether this choice is temporary or
    	-- definitive.   To do this, we use the following functions:
    	-- -   SetHilightMode
    	-- -   UnSetHilightMode
    	--   In the case of a shape, whether it is visualized in
    	-- wireframe presentation or with shading, we want to
    	-- systematically highlight the wireframe presentation.
    	-- Consequently, we set the highlight mode to 0.
        
    SetHilightMode(me:mutable;anIndex : Integer from Standard);
    	---C++: inline
    	---Purpose: Sets the highlight mode anIndex for the interactive object.
    	-- If, for example, you want to systematically highlight
    	-- the wireframe presentation of a shape - whether
    	-- visualized in wireframe presentation or with shading -
    	-- you set the highlight mode to 0.
    
    UnsetHilightMode(me:mutable);
    	---C++: inline
    	---Purpose: Allows the user to take a given Prs for hilight
    	--          ex : for a shape which would be displayed in shading mode
    	--          the hilight Prs is the wireframe mode.
    	--          if No specific hilight mode is defined, the displayed Prs
    	--          will be the hilighted one.    
    
    HasColor (me) returns Boolean from Standard;
