The Thotlib is able to manage structured graphics, like an arrow from the
rectangle
A to the rectangle B.
----- -----
| A |----------->| B |
----- -----
The shape or the arrow is "->".
If the formatting displays the rectangle A on the left of the rectangle B, the
Thotlib is able to automatically invert the real shape to maintain the
relation
form A to B.
----- -----
| B |<---------| A |
----- -----
The AbRealShape is used to implement that functionality.
I'm not sure it's clear.
Irene.
