the DRAW method [message #12409] Wed, 29 July 1998 00:00

hello,

i was wondering if anyone could tell me what
arguments are being passed to the mysterious
DRAW method of the various IDLgr widgets.

I have created objects which inherit from
IDLgr things, and would like to be able to
perform calculations when the draw method is
called, then call the self->IDLgr<thing>::draw.
(i.e. i want to override the method).

so i have tried this, (and some other random
flails):

myobject::draw, _EXTRA=extra

but i get this:

% ARROW::DRAW: Incorrect number of arguments

(where ARROW is my own (special) arrow)

i read in the IDL manual that they have kept
many of the methods a secrete because things may
change in the future. so i assume that this
is one of those methods? should i not override
this one?

should i make myDraw, which you call prior to
the real draw?

any help would be apprecieted.

thanks,

don
