public interface IGraphicElement
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control the Graphic Element object.

Remarks

IGraphicElement is the generic interface implemented by all graphic elements such as rectangles, circles, and text. This interface is used to obtain the spatial reference associated with these objects.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Method Summary

ISpatialReference	getSpatialReference() Spatial reference of the map.
void	setSpatialReferenceByRef(ISpatialReference spatialRef) Spatial reference of the map.

Method Detail
