Views hook into the Sim through the ViewMode.

• Parent page: view

ViewMode

A ViewMode attaches to Sim. ViewMode follows a state pattern. That means Sim calls update for ViewMode, and then ViewMode calls update for a ViewMode state. There are two states: one and sample. ViewMode is actually a state machine, so each state has enter and exit functions as well. Each state is simply a publisher for ViewMode. The views attach to these publishers.

updates:

• Sim -> ViewMode -> ViewMode state -> views -> viz’s

attach:

• Sim <- ViewMode
• ViewMode state <- views

The views that attach this way are:

• Buttons
  • CandidateAddMakeButton
  • CandidateDnAddMakeButton
• Screens
  • ViewDistrictMaps
  • ViewEntitiesOne
  • ViewEntitiesSample
  • ViewVizBudget
  • ViewVizOne
  • ViewVizSample

Other views don’t attach to a mode. They connect to Sim in other ways.
