Hello,

I'm developing a GUI for Network Simulator. In the GUI, I've created a button that has the image of a PC and other button which has image of a Router. What I'm planning to make is- Suppose if a user clicks on the button of PC and then clicks somewhere on the shell, image of a PC should be placed there. In this way, he should be able to design a topology. Can someone please tell me how can I do this? Do I need to use DND? Or can it be done with the help of events?

Thanks.

Handling events should be sufficient. Please check whether the below
posted snippet might be helpful for implementing your scenario -

public class ButtonShiftImage {

static boolean transferStarted = true;
public void createShell () {
final Display display = new Display ();
final Shell shell = new Shell (display);
shell.setLayout(new GridLayout());

final Image image = new Image(display, "swt.png");
final Button imageButton = new Button (shell, SWT.PUSH);
imageButton.setText ("Normal");
imageButton.setImage(image);

imageButton.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
@Override
public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
transferStarted = true;
}
});

shell.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
@Override
public void mouseDown(MouseEvent e) {
if (transferStarted) {
transferStarted = false;
GC gc = new GC(display);
gc.drawImage(image, e.x, e.y);
}
}
});

shell.setSize (200, 200);
shell.open ();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}
display.dispose ();
}

public static void main (String [] args) {
ButtonShiftImage db = new ButtonShiftImage();
db.createShell();
}
}

You can build this from ground up....

or you can easyly build the whole solution using GEF/GMF...

The circle the square can be anything...

The right side has a pellete which would contain u r pc or router or any thing.....

u can click an drop them on the main window...

why, mr. Anderson, why, why do you persist?
Because I Choose To.
