In This Topic

Object Model

Syntax

public abstract class NTool : Nevron.Nov.Dom.NDocumentNode, Nevron.Nov.Dom.INDomDeepEquals, Nevron.Nov.Dom.INDomDeeplyCloneable, Nevron.Nov.INDeeplyCloneable

Remarks

In essence tools are UI event handlers, which interpret the events dispatched to them by the interactor to perform tool specific actions.

In order for a tool to process any events at all it must be enabled, which is controlled by the Enabled property. Disabled tools are ignored by the interactor when it dispatches events for processing.

Tools can operate in two states - active and inactive. When a tool is active it will be the first tool to receive a chance to process all user events.

The transition between these states is performed by the Activate and Deactivate/Abort methods.
