during the execution of my GEF application, I can change the layoutmanager of some figures, knowing that I installed 2 editpolicies that inheret from FlowLayoutEditPolicy & XYLayoutEditPolicy in the same editpart.
my question is how to manage these editpolicies with the same role inside the same editpart so that I can move the figures according to its layoutmanager ??
thanks in advance.

finally I found that it's not possible :s
because in GEF philosophy, EditParts are limited to have only one EditPolicy per role.

Did you have a look to CompoundEditPolicy ?

Do you mean ComponentEditPolicy because I can't find an editpolicy with such name. this policy provide elementary mothods for managing commands.
my simple idea for using many editpolicies with the same editpart:
is to decide when to remove the current editpolicy (for example, according to the change of a model attribute )
removeEditPolicy(EditPolicy.LAYOUT_ROLE)
then install the new editpolicy.

Sorry this class is not in GEF. I have used it so many times, I forget it.
You could write your own CompoundEditPolicy quite easily, simply create a class which implements EditPolicy which wraps an edit policy list and
for each method iterate on your list, for instance :

public void activate() {
for (EditPolicy editPolicy : editPolicies) {
editPolicy.activate();
}
}


For the getCommand method, simply create a CompoundCommand, and add to it each command result.
Hope this help,

Regards,

Mariot
