I have this question: (Eclipse 2.0, GEF 2.0.0)
Suppose I want to display a Class in a class diagram. I have
a ClassEditpart:
- getFigure() returns a Rectangle with a Label child (to display the
class name). On the Rectangle is a FlowLayout.
- getModelChildren() returns a list of Property
with Property correponds a PropertyEditpart:
- getFigure() returns a Label with the Property name
now the problem: the label with the class name gets shown at the bottom of
the rectangle, after the labels of the properties. I found out that this
is because AbstractEditPart.refreshVisuals() does addChild(EditPart, i),
where i = 0 .. getModelChildren().size(), so the class Label gets "pushed
backwards" in the list of children of the Rectangle.
I see several approaches to this:
- add a TableHeaderEditPart
- override refreshVisuals or addChildVisual
- put this in bugzilla
- make a custom ClassFigure
what should I do?
