public class ResizableAttributeControllerFactory
extends NodeControllerFactory

This is attribute that produces a custom node controller for icons that can be interactively resized. It provides a context menu suitable for an attribute as well as an interactor that provides for resizing. To use this class, just insert it as an attribute inside a Ptolemy II attribute, and then right clicking on the icon for that object will result in the use of the controller specified here. The instance by convention will be named "_controllerFactory", but the only reason to enforce this is that only the first such controller factory found as an attribute will be used. It is a singleton, so placing it any container will replace any previous controller factory with the same name.

Since:

Ptolemy II 4.0
