Shape resize behaviour [message #1050620]

Hi all,

I have another question this time regarding the resize behaviour:

I'm following the tutorial and now have a EClass representation that looks like this:

-------------
| Classname |
|xxxxxxxxxxx|
|           |
|           |
|           |
------------

xxxxxxxx is a polyline. The problem is that the xxxxxx line does not get resized when the container does. Is there a way to get the line to take it's width from the container?
If not what is the best way to implement my own resize behaviour? Custom Shape Implementation, custom resize Feature, ...?

Regards,

Pelle

I think a custom layout feature is appropriate for this case.

Christian,

what Hallvard wrote is correct. Probably you have just overlooked the
according lines in the layout feature described in the tutorial:
http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.graphiti.doc%2Fresources%2Fdocu%2Fgfw%2Flayout-feature.htm&cp=30_1_3_6

if (graphicsAlgorithm instanceof Polyline) {
Polyline polyline = (Polyline) graphicsAlgorithm;
Point secondPoint = polyline.getPoints().get(1);
Point newSecondPoint =
gaService.createPoint(containerWidth, secondPoint.getY());
polyline.getPoints().set(1, newSecondPoint);
anythingChanged = true;

Cares about updating the length of the line.

Michael
