Class Context

The OCG::Context object represents an optional-content context in a document, within which document objects such as words or annotations are visible or hidden. The context keeps track of the ON-OFF states of all of the optional-content groups (OCGs) in a document. Content is or is not visible with respect to the OCG states stored in a specific context. Unlike other objects in OCG namespace, the OCG::Context does not correspond to any explicit PDF structure.

Each PDFView has a default context (PDF::GetOCGContext()) that it uses for on-screen drawing and that determines the default state for any drawing. The context has flags that control whether to draw content that is marked as optional, and whether to draw content that is not marked as optional.

When enumerating page content, OCG::Context can be passed as a parameter in ElementReader.Begin() method. When using PDFDraw, PDFRasterizer, or PDFViewCtrl class to render PDF pages use SetOCGContext() method to select an OC context.

There can be more than one Context object, representing different combinations of OCG states. You can change the states of OCGs within any context. You can build contexts with your own combination of OCG states, and issue drawing or enumeration commands using that context. For example, you can pass an optional-content context to ElementReader.Begin(). You can save the resulting state information as part of the configuration (e.g. using Config::SetInit methods), but the context itself has no corresponding PDF representation, and is not saved.

Constructors

Context(Config)

Create a context object that represents an optional-content state of the document from a given configuration.

Declaration
public Context(Config config)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Config config

A configuration from which to take initial OCG states.

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

Context(Context)

Copy constructor.

Declaration
public Context(Context context)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Context context

Another context from which to take initial OCG states.

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

Methods

Destroy()

Declaration
public void Destroy()

Dispose()

Declaration
public void Dispose()

Dispose(Boolean)

Declaration
protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Boolean disposing

Finalize()

Releases all resources used by the Context

Declaration
protected void Finalize()

GetNonOCDrawing()

Gets the non oc drawing.

Declaration
public bool GetNonOCDrawing()
Returns
Type Description
System.Boolean

the non-OC status for this context. The flag indicates whether the content that is not marked as optional should be treated as visible. For more information, please see SetNonOCDrawing().

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

GetOCMode()

Gets OC drawing mode

Declaration
public Context.OCDrawMode GetOCMode()
Returns
Type Description
Context.OCDrawMode

OC drawing mode

GetState(Group)

Gets the state.

Declaration
public bool GetState(Group group)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Group group

The optional-content group (OCG) that is queried.

Returns
Type Description
System.Boolean

the ON-OFF states (true or false) for the given optional-content group (OCG) in this OC context.

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

ResetStates(Boolean)

Sets the sates of all OCGs in the context to ON or OFF.

Declaration
public void ResetStates(bool all_on)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Boolean all_on

A flag used to specify whether the OCG states should be set to ON (if true), or OFF (if false).

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

SetNonOCDrawing(Boolean)

Sets the non-OC status for this context. Content that is not marked as optional content is drawn (or element.IsOCVisible()) when 'draw_non_OC' is true, and not drawn/visible otherwise.

Declaration
public void SetNonOCDrawing(bool draw_non_OC)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Boolean draw_non_OC

draw_non_OC A flag specifying whether the content that is not marked as optional should be treated as visible.

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

SetOCDrawMode(Context.OCDrawMode)

Sets the drawing and enumeration type for this context. This type, together with the visibility determined by the OCG and OCMD states, controls whether content that is marked as optional content is drawn or enumerated.

Declaration
public void SetOCDrawMode(Context.OCDrawMode oc_draw_mode)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Context.OCDrawMode oc_draw_mode

A flag specifying the visibility of optional content.

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception

SetState(Group, Boolean)

Sets the ON-OFF states for the given optional-content group (OCG) in this context.

Declaration
public void SetState(Group group, bool state)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Group group

The optional-content group (OCG) that is queried.

System.Boolean state

true for 'ON' and false for 'OFF'.

Exceptions
Type Condition
PDFNetException

PDFNetException the PDFNet exception
