Description

The IGMxApplication interface contains methods/properties to customize the ArGlobe desktop application and allows you to manipulate ArcGlobe application specific properties and methods, such as create a new secondary viewer, setting the default background sky color, making the TOC visible, copying to clipboard and exporting the current display to 2D images. In order to change the sky background color, DefaultHighBackgroundColor and DefaultLowBackgroundColor can be used to change the color of the background color when at a higher and lower altitudes, respectively. For specifying the low and high altitudes of the transition distance within which the sky background color changes from default low background color to default high background color, the SetDefaultBackGroundTransitionDistances can be used. 

To create a secondary viewer for viewing data in a different perspective, the CreateSubView method is used. The ShowTOC method and TOCVisible boolean property can be used to the show/hide the Table of Contents dockable window. SetDefaultContentsView can be used to set the default TOC view to the current ative Table of Contents view.

Inorder to clear/suspend/restore animated gestrues with the Navigation tool in ArcGlobe, you can use the ClearGesture, SuspendGesture, RestoreGesture methods.
