public abstract class LXCommand
extends Object

An LXCommand is an operation that may be performed by the engine, potentially in two directions, supporting and Undo operation. If you are working directly with the LX API, you are free to ignore this interface. However, if you are building a higher-level UI that you would like to integrate with the undo system, it is best to invoke operations via calls to lx.command.perform().
