Interface INgDiscreteFilter

All Superinterfaces:
Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
INgDiscreteFilterProxy, NgDiscreteFilter
public interface INgDiscreteFilter
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control the discrete property filter.

Description

A discrete property filter corresponds to a specific value of a discrete property.

A discrete filter can be created either through the Schematics Designer GUI when you define your project parameters or using the AddFilter method available from the INgDiscreteProperty interface in your code.

Indicates if the effect 'effect' related to the discrete property filter is set (see esriNgDiscreteFilterEffect).

Description

By default, Schematics automatically sets default values for some discrete filter effects (see the List of the discrete filter effect default values, below). For all these effects, the IsEffectSet method returns TRUE.


For the others effects (those that are not automatically set), the IsEffectSet method returns TRUE only if the effect has been set:

- either when the discrete filter's characteristics have been set through Schematics Designer,

- or by calling the SetEffect method in the code.
