setGraphWindowGeometryRecordName:

[Rick Riolo]

I noticed this great new feature in swarm-1.0.4 (to make it
easily to save and restore window positions), and I see
it works fine for heatbugs widgets/windows like the 
ZoomRaster worldRaster, and the EZGraph unhappyGraph.

I tried to use it with a BLTGraph as follows:
   BGraph = [BLTGraph createBegin: [self getZone]];
   [BGraph setGraphWindowGeometryRecordName : "tempHeatGraphWindow"];
   BGraph = [BGraph createEnd];

But then I get this error:

HeatbugObserverSwarm.m:181: warning: `BLTGraph' does not respond to 
`setGraphWindowGeometryRecordName:'

In the release notes for 1.0.4 it says of the
ArchivedGeometryWidget (which provides the method above):
  "...which many widgets now inherit."

I get a similar message for an EZBin, where from:

  unhappyBin = [EZBin createBegin: globalZone];
  [unhappyBin setGraphics: 1]; [unhappyBin setFileOutput: 0]; 
  [unhappyBin setTitle: "unHappinessDistribution"];
  [unhappyBin setGraphWindowGeometryRecordName : "unhappyBinWindow"];

I get the message:

HeatbugObserverSwarm.m:222: warning: `EZBin' does not respond to 
`setGraphWindowGeometryRecordName:'


Does this mean BLTGraph and EZBin do not inherit the 
ArchivedGeometyWidget? 
If not, are there plans for that (so that their positions can be
saved/restored, too)?

Or maybe I'm not using it correctly for a BLTGraph/EZBin and all its 
parts?

thanks!
