Hi,

I've added a note to my diagram programmatically (in a Handler):

Node note = ViewService.createNode(notationalDiagram, ViewType.NOTE, [MyModel]DiagramEditorPlugin.DIAGRAM_PREFERENCES_HINT);
ShapeImpl noteImpl = (ShapeImpl)note;
noteImpl.setFillColor(8905185);
noteImpl.setDescription("DataBase: " + databaseItem.getName());//don't work...!!!


How can I add some text to this note?

Thanks, regards

Giovanni

Hi,

can you be more precise on how it doesn't work?
Do you have a stacktrace? Is it only a refresh issue?

First thing that come to me, are you in a transaction when you are calling the setDescription?

Hi Aurelien,

no, I got no errors or exceptions, I just see the Note correctly displayed on the diagram but without text inside; furthermore, I called the methods in a AbstractTransactionalCommand, so I thought it must work....maybe the "setDescription" is not the right method to call?

Thanks for your answer, regards

Giovanni.

Sorry Aurelien,

the "setDescription" method is working fine, I can see the description value correctly set in the resource file; but my needs are to display some text inside the Note programmatically created: how can I reach this goal?

Thanks,

Giovanni.
