Hi Mulone,
How you extend OMGraphic depends on what you are doing. You can extend
OMGraphicList and add certain OMGraphics to it in certain ways, or you
can extend the OMGraphic that has the geometry of the object you are
trying to represent but need more functionality. I generally extend
OMGraphicList, because that lets me control the visibility of different
parts of the list depending on the status of the object I'm trying to
represent.
You also have the option of using attributes
(OMGraphic.putAttribute(key, value), OMGraphic.getAttribute(key) to
store objects you might need later, without extending the actual class.
Hope this helps,
Don
