## Class RegionReference

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.fop.area.AreaTreeObject
  - - org.apache.fop.area.Area
    - - org.apache.fop.area.RegionReference

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    BodyRegion

      public class RegionReference
      extends Area

  This is a region reference area for a page regions. This area is the direct child of a region-viewport-area. It is cloneable so the page master can make copies from the original page and regions.

    - #### RegionReference

          public RegionReference(int regionClass,
                                 java.lang.String regionName,
                                 RegionViewport parent)

    - #### getCTM

          public CTM getCTM()

      Get the current transform of this region.
      Returns:
        ctm the current transform to position this region

    - #### getBlocks

          public java.util.List<Area> getBlocks()

      Get the block in this region.
      Returns:
        the list of blocks in this region

    - #### getRegionClass

          public int getRegionClass()

      Get the region class of this region.
