Hello,

I'm working on an Eclipse RCP project with Sirius and i want to know if it's possible to set anchorage points on SVG elements.
The main goal is to connect links at predefined points on a graphical element.

Thanks.

Hi Victor,

If I understand correctly your need, you have an existing node
displaying a SVG and want to have an edge connected to this node at a
specific border location? But is your issue about connecting the anchor
of edge at a specific border location at edge creation time or even
after edge creation? Because normally you can locate your edge anchor at
a choosen border location by hand. Perhaps you want to do that
programmaticaly for new created diagram?

Best Regards.

Hi,

In fact, we want to force the link connection on some specific locations on the edge. For example, if you have a triangle in SVG, we want to force the link to be connected on the apex only, or only on the middle of the segments.

Is this possible, by modifying the SVG format ? Or programmatically, even after the link creation ?

Regards,

Jonathan

From Sirius 3.0 it is possible, see [1].
If you cannot do it, could you provide an example with scenario or a
little screencast?

To do it programmatically after edge creation, you must modify the
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.notation.Anchor of the GMF Edge.

Best Regards.

Hi,

We are using Sirius 3.x and what is described in this example works correctly : the transparent pixels are not considered as the path of the shape. But this is not what I need. To continue with the given example, what I need is to force the link to be connected with the left and right apex (in the red circles in my picture). Is it possible by modifying the SVG shape properties ? Or to define the anchors in the odesign model ?

Regards,

Jonathan

Hi,

Ok I understand better, the layout of the edge depends of the router
used, the bendpoints and the anchors defined in the notation model. The
router can be defined in the odesign model and can be customized in the
diagram editor through the tabbar or properties view. For example the
tree router could be useful for your need. In addition in odesign model,
you can use "Ends Centering" property available on Edge Style to have
always the edge centered on source, target or both.

Best Regards.
