How to place a compartment node in the center of a container node [message #677342]

Hello, everyone. I have encountered an problem as far as the COMPARTMENT. Actually, in my model, there are two Ellipse Node named Place and Mark. Place is the container Node which have only one Compartment Node (Mark) inside. But I cannot place Mark right in the center of Place. I think it should be the problem of layout, so much so that I've tried many labout, (Flowlayout, BorderLayout...)but this problem always exists.

Right now, I delete all the Layout so the .gmfgraph file is juste like blow:


Figure Descriptor PlaceFigure
     Ellipse PlaceFigure
          Ellipse PlaceCompartementFigure
     Child Access getFigurePlaceCompartementFigure

Do you have any ideas?? Thank you very much. Razz

Hi,

You should try to use a GrilLayout on the container (Place) with a number of columns set to 1. And on your container (Mark), add a GridLayoutData with Horizontal and Vertical Alignement set to CENTER.

Hello,Mickael

Thank you for your help. I finally resolved the problem. But I also should change some attribute for that. But I don't quite understand why I should do that particularly. Right now, I have another problem, as for the Mark, it has an attribute COLOR. When I change its value, the color of the mark in the canvas will change also. So do you have any ideas to make it??

Thank you!

Vincent
