Hi All,

I am trying to implement a feature that make a certain shape show/update display when selected and return to its original shape when loses its focus (should not make editor dirty).
Is there a way to add listeners to Graphiti Shape or is there more appropriate way of implementing this.
By the way, i am using IPatterns.

Thanks,
Ken

Ken,

Graphiti does not offer to register listeners on shapes. The only notification on selection we sent out is a call to getSelection method of the tool behavior provider to change the shape you want to select. Not sure if that helps in your case.

Hi Michael,

The getSelection method from ToolBehaviorProvider is called even on mouse hover.
Is there a method that is notified when the shape was only selected and deselected?
Any idea?

Thanks,
Ken
