Programmatically change appearance/style of diagrams [message #1786975]

Hello everyone,

for a small project at my university i need to know, wether or not it is possible to change the appearance of objects within a diagram programmatically. We would like to transform old model diagrams, created with GMF tooling, to our newly created Sirius editor, but would like to transform the appearance to the new diagram as well. Properties, we would like to transfer, are positions of the objects, sizes and other basic styling properties.

Maybe someone might help me.

Looking forward for your answers,

Merlin

Hello,

You will need to execute a RecordingCommand to modify the LayoutConstraint (Location, Height and Width) element of each GMF Nodes and the height and width of each DNode from the Sirius diagram to match the information from your old GMF diagram (depending on the number of diagram you have, it might be simpler to do it manually). For the style, I don't think that you will need to change anything programmatically, the definition of the style of your mappings in the odesign should be enough.

Regards,
Steve

Still not sure what to do. I'm no experienced using sirius, maybe you can provide more details on how to do such modifications of the nodes in the sirius diagram. Or at least you could provide some oher ressource (e.g. links to relevant topics), so i can read more about the topic.

Regards
