ArcObjects Library Reference (GlobeCore)

IGlobeDisplayLayers Interface

Provides access to members that manipulate globe display layers. Note: the IGlobeDisplayLayers interface has been superseded byIGlobeDisplayLayers2. Please consider using the more recent version.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

IGlobeDisplayLayers interface provides access to members that affect a layers property. IGlobeDisplaylayers interface has the following properties and methods:

BaseLayers � an array containing internal layers used as a source of elevation for Floating Layers, IsLayerVisible � indicats if a layer is visible, and LayerTransparency � transparency value of the layer between 0 to 100.

ApplyHeightProperties method to apply hieght property (including offset, unit conversion and elevation expression) to a layer, FindGlobeLayerProperties a method to find GlobeLayerProperties, RefreshLayer refreshes a layer (regenerates the layer cache).
