// G4VMarker - base class for markers - circles, squares, etc.
// John Allison  17/11/96.

// Class Description:
// G4VMarkers are 2-dimensional G4VVisPrims with the special
// properties (a) of always facing the camera and (b) of having the
// possibility of a size defined in screen units (pixels) or paper
// units (points - there are 72 points per inch).  The convention is
// that if a world size is not specified, then the marker will be
// drawn to the given screen size or paper size independent of the
// viewing transformation in effect.
//
// "Size" means "overall size", e.g., diameter of circle, side of
// square, height of text (but diameter and radius access functions
// are defined to avoid ambiguity).
//
// So the user who constructs the marker decides whether it should be
// drawn to a given size in world coordinates by setting the world
// size.  Alternatively, the user can set the screen size (internally,
// the world size is set to zero) and the marker is drawn to its
// screen size.  Finally, the user may decide not to set any size; in
// that case, it is drawn according to the sizes specified in the
// default marker specified in G4ViewParameters.
//
// Also in G4ViewParameters is a "global marker scale" which is a
// factor by which all marker sizes are multiplied before drawing.
//
// Thus the graphics system driver scene handler code might look like:
//
// void G4XXXGraphicsSceneHandler::AddPrimitive (const G4Circle& circle) {
//   G4bool hidden = !(fpView -> GetViewParameters().IsMarkerNotHidden());
//   const G4Colour&     colour = GetColour (circle);  
//                                   // Base class GetColour.
//   G4VMarker::FillStyle style = circle.GetFillStyle();
//   const G4Point3D&    centre = circle.GetPosition();
//   MarkerSizeType sizeType;
//   G4double size = GetMarkerSize (circle, sizeType);
//   switch (sizeType) {
//   default:
//   case screen:
//     // Draw in screen coordinates.
//     // ...
//     break;
//   case world:
//     // Draw in world coordinates.
//     // ...
//     break;
//   }
// }
