Hmmm... coming back to my recent question about the use of/access to the
background-color property: I somehow would feel much for further extending
the way the Common*Properties are handled. IIC, the calls like the above
should only happen in the background via the propMgr of the FObj, and not
become part of the public API.
As a concrete example, in Layout, I would rather see something like:
private AreaDimensionProps adimProps;
...
protected void initProperties(PropertyManager propMgr) {
adimProps = propMgr.getAreaDimensionProps();
...
}
...
Length ipd = aProps.ipd;
(maybe the latter can become more abstract
PropertyValue ipd = aProps.ipd; )
Does this sound crazy? (FYI: the AreaDimensionProps class does not exist
yet... LayoutProps, for example, is already present, but seems to be
underused at the moment.)
Cheers,
Andreas
