[EMFForms] Extend existing controls [message #1689796]

Hello all
EMF Forms satisfies my needs for EMF GUI.
For a specific need I have to add for each estructural feature modification a new element (for example a button).

First I thought I had to use additional renderer extension point but it seems it is not fully implemented.
Then I tried to replace default rendered and decorate creation. But it is not yet working

Do you see a clean way of dealing with my problem ?

Regards

Hi,

replacing the dedault renderer is the right solution to customize
controls. What exactly is not working?

Best regards

I tried 2 solutions
- 1
I tried to replace the element renderer but in this case i don't know how to delegate creation of controls and decorate them
-2
I tried to replace feature renderer but it seems I have problems with controls with several rows.

Hi Tristan,

what do you mean by element renderer and feature renderer?
In your case, I think you want to replace the control renderer for a
certain feature (or several features).

Is that the case?

Best regards
