Label alignment inside a compartment [message #533778]

Hi!

may someone of you got the helping idea, because i can't get it done right.

Situation:
I got a Node N.
I got a Node SN.
Node N can have compartments of the type SN.

Until now everything works just fine:)

Now I'd like to see a centered label inside the SN Nodes.
Well, after a very long period of googling and clicking inside my gmfmap/gmfgraph i still got no good result.

Not working solution:
I've found one setting which will get my label centered. However the SN mode won't fill its compartment anymore. (In this setting a got an eclipse with grid layout inside an rectangle as gmfgraph definition for the SN node)

Regards,
Florian

Hello,

Have you try to add a child "Border Layout Data" under your label with "alignement = CENTER" and "vertical = false" ?
(In the gmfgraph)

Have you tried this?
http:// wiki.eclipse.org/GMF_Newsgroup_Q_and_A#How_can_I_right-justi fy_items_in_a_compartment.3F

In this example the compartment content is right-justified but it explains how layout information is applied to compartments.
Maybe this helps.

Hi Sebastian,

thx for this hint, this place of the source could be it. But i didn't get it to work the right way either. Well now I'm just out of the time i had for this project.. So i choose some cheating like centering the label by using indent values. Surprised
