Description

IGlobeDisplay interface provides access to members that control the Globe. IGlobeDisplay interface has the following non-inherited properties and methods:

AdvancedOptions property to access the globe�s data processing and management options, CacheUsage (CachePath, bUpdate ) � current disk cache usage (in Mbytes) for the specified path, CachePath - a true value to the argument bUpdate will update the CacheUsage, EnableMessages � indicates if warning messages and questions related to refreshing a layer or displaying vector data should be enabled, Globe � a container for display and manuiplation of data, ImmediateDataFetching � indicates if pending requests for tiles should complete before navigation, SelectionColor � the selction color selected features show with.

Clear(bRecycleBasicObjects) a method to stop all pending requests for tile fetches - a false value to bRecycleBasicObjects will stop the loading thread in addition, GetSurfaceElevation - finds the elevation (including the highest resolution, if specified)  of the surface at the given longitude and latitude, GetSurfacePoint -returns a point given the x and y position (in local coordinates) of the viewer. In addition, the methods Locate, LocateFeature, LocateMultiple and LocateLayers all return a set of objects hit by the line of sight from the observer location within the window coordinates of xView and yView in the viewer pViewer.
