ART GUI can interact in one of three modes:
- Edit mode lets users create or edit marks.
- Run mode lets users view and detect marks.
- View-only mode lets users view marks, but not add or modify them.
Your Silverlight application can switch the mode from one to another by simply setting Annotator.Mode Property.
While you are in View mode, your application will not have to deal with any ART-related events: it simply loads the image and ART marks and displays them.
If your Silverlight application switches to Run mode, your application will not have to deal with any ART-related events: it simply loads the image and ART marks and displays and detects them.
If your application switches to Edit mode, then it will have to start dealing with specific ART-related events.
