Rendering Object Model

The object model for the CDO Rendering Library is hierarchical. The following table shows the containment hierarchy. Each indented object is a child of the object under which it is indented. An object is the parent of every object at the next level of indentation under it. For example, a Formats collection and a Views collection are both child objects of a ContainerRenderer object, and a RenderingApplication object is a parent object of a ContainerRenderer object. However, a RenderingApplication object is not a parent object of a Views collection.
