[EuGENia | EOL] Adding new label problem [message #482899]

Hello,

I'm trying to add a new label to the compartment of XXX node. But it is
not working out.

var label = new GmfGraph!Label("temp");
CompartmentFigure.children.add(label);

If I do this then it allows me to all blank label where I want but, when
I try to add name and text to label it is not working.

var label = new GmfGraph!Label;
label.name = "RuleNacsCompartmentFigureLabel";
label.text = "NACs Compartment";
CompartmentFigure.children.add(label);

Please help me with this.

Many thanks,
Mihir

Hi Mihir,

EOL doesn't support constructors with parameters for model elements such
as GmfGraph!Label("temp").

Also, in EOL strings are placed within '' (support for "" will be added
in the next version) so you should try:

var label = new GmfGraph!Label;
label.name = 'RuleNacsCompartmentFigureLabel';
label.text = 'NACs Compartment';
CompartmentFigure.children.add(label);

Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

Thanks for your help.

Actually I was just experimenting with the constructor if it works and
so I forgot to remove it while pasting that bit of code here in the post. :)

After changing "" to '', it works fine.. :)

Thanks a million,
Mihir
