extend

Method used to decorate a given object (publicAPI+model) with vtkAbstractWidget characteristics.

Argument	Type	Required	Description
publicAPI		Yes	object on which methods will be bounds (public)
model		Yes	object on which data structure will be bounds (protected)
initialValues		Yes	(default: {})

getBounds

Get the bounds of the widget

getContextVisibility

Get the context visibility.

getHandleVisibility

Returns true if the handles are visible, false otherwise.

getNestedProps

Get all representations of the widget.

getPlaceFactor

Get the place factor.

getRepresentationFromActor

Get the vtkWidgetRepresentation instance associated with the given vtkActor instance.

Argument	Type	Required	Description
actor	vtkProp	Yes

getRepresentations

Get all the representations of the widget instance.

getViewWidgets
