IShape<T> Interface
Represents a shape on a diagram. This is a more strongly-typed subtype of IShape. It is specific to a particular model element type T, such as IClassifier. You can assign to it any IShape<E> where E is a subtype of T, such as IClass.

| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ChildShapes | Shapes that are contained within this shape. For example, the attribute and operation rows of a class shape; class shapes contained inside a package shape; ports and parts inside a component. For each ChildShape, ParentShape == this.(Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | Color | Gets or sets the color of the shape. (Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | Diagram | The diagram that contains this shape.(Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | Element | |
![]() | Height | (Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | ParentShape | The shape that contains this shape, or null. If ParentShape is not null, this shape is a member of ParentShape.ChildShapes.(Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | Width | (Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | XPosition | (Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | YPosition | (Inherited from IShape.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Delete() | Removes the shape from the diagram. This might or might not remove from the model the element that the shape displays. For example, removing a class shape from a class diagram does not remove the UML class from the model.(Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | GetObject<T>() | Gets the model element represented by this shape. Supply the type of the result that you want.(Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | Move(Double, Double, Double, Double) | Changes the position and size of the shape.(Inherited from IShape.) |
![]() | ToIShape<T>() | Cast to a type that specifies the type of the element that the shape represents.(Inherited from IShape.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | GetChildShapes<T>() | Get child shapes that display the specified type of model element.(Defined by PresentationHelpers.) |
![]() | GetElement() | The model element that this shape represents.(Defined by IShapeExtensions.) |
