Hi,

when i try to select multiple objects with mouse using marquee than i am not able to select connection edit parts.

Do you have any clue why is that?

Regards,

I've been struggling a lot recently with the MarqueeSelectionTool, but I sort of figured it out on my own.

That said, it would be extremely helpful if you could perhaps provide a brief description of your problem and its solution! I can't tell you how many times in the last several weeks I've seen people say, "Hey! It's fixed now! Bye!" but never give a hint as to how it was fixed. If it helps, just think of providing a description as a major contribution to society.

Thanks!!!

i have used ScalableFreeformRootEditPart and have override the method like

@Override
public DragTracker getDragTracker(Request request) {
MarqueeDragTracker mdt = new MarqueeDragTracker();
mdt.setMarqueeBehavior(MarqueeSelectionTool.BEHAVIOR_NODES_TOUCHED_AND_RELATED_CONNECTIONS);
return mdt;
}

setMarqueeBehavior defines the selection behavior. MarqueeSelectionTool.BEHAVIOR_NODES_TOUCHED_AND_RELATED_CONNECTIONS is used to make sure connection are also part of selection.

Cheers,
