[Zest] setCurveDepth + Label Position [message #481395]

Hi,

I am using the Zest GraphViewer and assorted content/label providers. In
my own LayoutAlgorithm, I am using setCurveDepth() on some of the graph
connections. However, as soon as I do this, the label of these
connections moves to the initial node of the connection and stays there.
Normal (non-curved) connections are fine.

Experimentially, I changed the index of the MidpointLocator given in the
GraphConnection class, line 653:

labelLocator = new MidpointLocator(connectionFigure, 0);

This seems to affect the position, but I am unsure how to proceed to
induce the change from my code only. Any hints?

Thanks,

Philip

I'm wondering about this as well. By default, the connection labels are bisected by the connection lines, which makes them difficult to read. If I could change the color of the text that would help but I can't figure out how to do that either. Smile

(The only thing that changing the mid-point did for me was to freeze everything...)

I agree a simple ability to change the text color, perhaps exposing the connectionLabel attribute would provide us the ability? Is this a bug fix candidate?
