Connection to front? [message #228305]

Hello,

if the user select a connection (PolylineConnection) then this connection was painted in red (other in black). In some cases there a more than one connection to an anchor. so the connections overlapped in a big part. How can i bring the selected connection in front of the other?

thx

Hi,

You could just add connection's figure it's parent when connection edit
part becomes selected. This will remove the figure from parent's children
list and append it at the end so it will be drawn on top of the others.
The #add(IFigre) methods also validates connection figure and repaints it.
So, I guess in the place where you change the figure's color, you can
simply call myConnectionFigure.getParent().add(myConnectionFigure) and
this will bring the selected connection up in a front of the others.
Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex,

after my first quick test i must say; IT WORKS :-) It's a little bit tricky und i must set the router again after i add the figure but this is ok.
