Declaration

TIEShapeLayer = class(TIELayer);


Description

TImageEnView supports multiple layers, allowing the creation of a single image from multiple source images (which can be resized, rotated, moved, etc).
TIEShapeLayer is a descendent of TIELayer that displays one of ImageEn's one hundred built-in shapes.

 

You can create shape layers with code using LayersAdd or by user action by setting MouseInteractLayers to mlCreateShapeLayers.

Review the Layer Documentation for a full description of layer support.

Note: If you need a shape with text, use a TIETextLayer and specify a BorderShape
