Detailed Description

Store and manages the displaying of the Landscape.

Don't use this class directly, use the LandscapeMgr. A landscape's most important element is a photo panorama, or at least a polygon that describes the true horizon visible from your observing location. Optional components include:

We discern:

Parameters
LandscapeIdThe directory name of the landscape.
nameThe landscape name as specified in the LandscapeIni (may contain spaces, UTF8, ...)

Definition at line 60 of file Landscape.hpp.
