getFigure

public FigureHandle getFigure()
Returns the value of the 'Figure' reference. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Referencing Elements'.

If the meaning of the 'Figure' reference isn't clear, there really should be more of a description here...

Returns:
the value of the 'Figure' reference.

setFigure

public void setFigure(FigureHandle value)
Sets the value of the 'Figure' reference.

Parameters:
value - the new value of the 'Figure' reference.
