  +--edu.umd.cs.jazz.util.ZBoundsFindFilter
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable, ZFindFilter
Direct Known Subclasses:
ZMagBoundsFindFilter

public class ZBoundsFindFilter
extends java.lang.Object
implements ZFindFilter, java.io.Serializable

ZBoundsFindFilter is a filter that accepts visual and terminal nodes that overlap the specified bounds in global coordinates. Visual nodes are those node types that have visual components, and are not editors of another node (i.e., do not have 'hasOneChild' set). Terminal nodes are leaf nodes and group nodes that do not "childrenFindable".

Warning: Serialized and ZSerialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Jazz releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Jazz. A future release of Jazz will provide support for long term persistence.
