Package prefuse.visual Description

Classes for representing and storing VisualItems. In addition to the top level VisualItem interface, NodeItem and EdgeItem provide access to an underlying graph structure, DecoratorItem represents a VisualItem "attached to" or "decorating" another VisualItem, and AggregateItem represents an aggregated collection of VisualItems.

VisualItems descend from the Tuple interface, and as such are actually object proxies for a row of a data table. This package includes the corresponding table and graph implementations, which have been tuned to the needs of the visual abstraction. More implementational machinery for these types is in the prefuse.visual.tuple package.
