Jago, You can build the GVT tree (GraphicsNode objects) using GVTBuilder.build. ( http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/xmlgraphics/batik/trunk/sources/org/apache/batik/bridge/GVTBuilder.java?view=markup )
Check out SVGAbstractTranscoder.transcode(Document, String, TranscodeOutput) which uses the GVTBuilder. ( http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/xmlgraphics/batik/trunk/sources/org/apache/batik/transcoder/SVGAbstractTranscoder.java?view=markup ) -Teck On Tue, May 4, 2010 at 12:11 PM, LP <java.j...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > under > http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/using/architecture.html#lowLevelComponentsit > is stated that "The > *Graphic Vector Toolkit* (GVT) module, which represents a view of the DOM > tree that is more suitable for for rendering and event handling purposes. > This module describes DOM tree in terms of a tree of Java graphics objects." > > Of what type are these Java graphics objects?
