GoToSleep

< Actually activate the completely loaded layer because the user is about to use it. All OS-specific UI objects (windows, views) already exist at this point. Use this to e.g. start the insertion point of a text field flashing, or start a movie player that was playing when we quit.

IsLoaded

public

bool IsLoaded();

Discussion

< Save this layer to the given file package (i.e. .xstk folder) as an XML file.

Save

public

virtual bool Save(
    const std::string& inPackagePath ); 

Discussion

< Load this layer from its XML file, asynchronously. Once successfully done, sets mLoaded.

virtual bool ShowHandlersForObjectType(
    std::string inTypeName );

< Print a debug description of this object to the console.
