Hi,
I want to add an action on a figure when the cursor passes over it. But,i don't know which class is used here and what method is exactly called in this situation.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you in advance

Hi Asma,

in your generated diagram plugin there's a "edit.parts" package. It contains the EditParts (controllers) of your figures. Inside of these classes is an inner class which is the actual figure (view).

getPrimaryShape() on your EditParts returns their controlled figure. On each figure you can check the available methods by opening the extended figure class and pressing [Ctrl]+[o] twice (!). Relevant methods for your case might be the addYYYListener() Methods inherited from org.eclipse.draw2d.Figure such as:
addMouseListener(), addFocusListener(), addMouseMotionListener(), or even handleMouseEntered()|Exited()|Hover().
