OEHighlightOverlayByBallAndStick¶

class  OEHighlightOverlayByBallAndStick : public OEHighlightOverlayBase

The OEHighlightOverlayByBallAndStick class allows the customization of the ball and stick highlighting style that is associated with the OEHighlightOverlayStyle.BallAndStick constant. This style enables the highlighting of overlapping patterns. See example in Figure: Example of overlay highlighting using the ‘ball and stick’ style.
