Class ConfigStyler

java.lang.Object
  uk.ac.starlink.topcat.plot2.ConfigStyler

public class ConfigStyler
extends Object

Manages creation of PlotLayers from Plotters by turning ConfigMaps into appropriate Style instances. This would be just a case of calling the relevant Plotter method, except that method can throw a ConfigException, and we have to manage behaviour in the case that that happens. This is currently done by popping up a dialogue window the first time the error occurs.
