Summary of Link Properties

Property Name	Type	Effect	Default	Comment
alternateColor	Color	alternate colored segments	null	Segment colors are `foreground` and `alternateColor`. Segments are the width of the link unless the `lineStyle` property is specified.
arrowColor	Color	color of arrow	Color.black	Sets the arrow color; the default is black.
arrowMode	int	style of arrow	ARROW_FILL	ARROW_FILL gives a filled triangular shape, ARROW_OPEN gives a 2-arms shape, and ARROW_GRADIENT gives a lighter color near the target. Set oriented to enable an arrow. ARROW_DECORATION delegates the display of the arrow to a decoration.
arrowPosition	float	position of arrow	1f	ARROW_FILL and ARROW_OPEN modes only. It sets the position of the arrow along the link. The default is 1f, that is, at the target of the link. When exactly at 1f, the link is not painted until the very end, so it does not overlap the link.
arrowRatio	float	relative size of the arrow	1f	ARROW_FILL and ARROW_OPEN modes only. It sets the size of the arrow according to the link width. The ratio value is multiplied by twice the link width to obtain the arrow size.
borderDownColor	Color	border down color	null	The down side color of the border.
borderStyle	float [ ]	dash style	null	Overrides `lineStyle` if defined.
borderStylePhase	float	dash offset	0f	Overrides `lineStylePhase` only when `borderStyle` is defined.
borderUpColor	Color	border color	null	The color of the border. If `borderDownColor` is specified, it affects only the upside border of the link.
borderWidth	float	border width	0f	The width of the link border.
curved	float	curved lines	0f	Inner points are Bezier control points. For 2 points, a standard deviation is applied. Values below 0f and over 1f are ignored. Set to 0 to disable curves, use 0.65 for best results.
decorations	ilog.views.IlvGraphic[]	puts IlvGraphic onto the link	null	Style sheet entry can be a @# construct that generates an `IlvGraphic` (works only with an indexed setter) .
decorationPositions	float[ ]	sets relative location of the decorations	null	Values are between 0.0 and 1.0.
decorationOptions	int[ ]	displays options for decorations	null	Options are DECORATION_NOTHING for default, an ORed set of DECORATION_ANIMATE to enable animation according to `animateSpeed` value, DECORATION_ROTATE to rotate the decoration according to the link shape, or DECORATION_FIXED_SIZE to prevent the decoration from zooming. For a decoration over the link, use DECORATION_OVER and DECORATION_ANCHOR_[TOP\|BOTTOM\|LEFT\|RIGHT] to set the position of the decoration with respect to the link center. DECORATION_[FULL \| HALF \| NO]_RETRACT_AT_END] is used in ARROW_DECORATION special mode to display the decoration at the end of the link.
endCap	int	link termination (and dashes) style	CAP_SQUARE	See `ilog.views.IlvStroke`.
foreground	java.awt.Color	main color	null	Value may be a decimal triple, #-form, or any of the standard Java colors, for example, `12,55,200`, `#E023B3`, `cyan`. No alpha is allowed.
label	String	link label	null	Convenient property to access the first decoration that is a label. If none is found, an `IlvZoomableLabel` is created at the first available slot in the decoration array.
lineJoin	int	corner style	JOIN_MITER	See `ilog.views.IlvStroke`.
lineStyle	float [ ]	dash style	null	See `ilog.views.IlvLinkImage`.
lineStylePhase	float	dash offset	0f	See `ilog.views.IlvLinkImage`.
lineWidth	float	line width	0f	The width of the link (border excluded).
minimumLineWidth	float	zoom min. width	0f	The minimum width of the link.
maximumLineWidth	float	zoom max. width	0f	See `ilog.views.IlvLinkImage`.
mode	int	main look	MODE_GRADIENT	MODE_UNICOLOR displays the foreground color; MODE_GRADIENT displays a brightness gradient derived from the foreground, giving the look of a pipe; MODE_NEON displays a transparent gradient derived from the foreground, giving the look of a flashy neon; and MODE_TEXTURE displays the texture from the texture property.
oriented	boolean	flag	false	True enables an arrow.
texture	IlvTexture	texture	null	The texture for MODE_TEXTURE. The property editor expects a URL to build the texture, so use the string representation of a URL in the style sheet to set this property.
visible	boolean	show the link	true
wave	String	wavy stroke	0/0	First part is the amplitude, second part is the period. It works best with direct lines.
