// .NAME vtkPVCueManipulator - abstract proxy for manipulators
// used in animation.
// .SECTION Description
// An animation cue proxy delegates the operation of modifying the property
// on the proxy being animated to a \b Manipulator. An example of a manipulator
// is a vtkPVKeyFrameCueManipulator. Subclasses must override
// \c UpdateValue to perform the actual property manipulation.
// Just like all proxies involved in Animation, this is a client side proxy,
// with no VTK objects created on the server.
// A manipulator fires two kinds of events:
// \li \b vtkPVCueManipulator::StateModifiedEvent is fired when
// the manipulator modifies the animated proxy.
// \li \b vtkCommand::Modified is fired when properties of the manipulator
// are changed which affects the way the animation is generated e.g in case
// of vtkPVKeyFrameCueManipulator, this event is fired when
// the key frames are changed i.e. added/removed/modified.

  // This method is called when the AnimationCue's StartAnimationCueEvent is

  // been restarted. This is here for one major reason: after the last key frame,
  // the state of the scene must be as it was left a the the last key frame. This does not
  // happend automatically, since if while animating the currentime never coincides with the
  // last key frame's key time, then it never gets a chance to update the properties value.
  // Hence, we note when the cue begins. Then, if the currentime is beyond that of the last key
  // frame we pretend that the current time coincides with that of the last key frame and let
  // it update the properties. This is done only once per Animation cycle. The Initialize method
  // is used to indicate that a new animation cycle has begun.
