Method Detail

draw

void draw(Graphics2D g,
          Shape shape,
          CyNetworkView networkView,
          View<? extends CyIdentifiable> view)

This method is called by Cytoscape when a CyNetworkView is being updated in order to let the custom graphics draw onto its Graphics2D object.

Parameters:

g - The graphics object to draw onto

shape - The node view's shape or the edge or network view's bounding box

networkView - The network view being updated

view - The view object that has this layer's CyCustomGraphics as a visual property value (so far, only CyNode views are supported by Cytoscape's default RenderingEngine)
