hello,
is this true ?
to interact with a graphical element I need (to use, to redesign or to
design)
Handle (for a special graphical object)
Tracker to track the current mouse position or the drag or click
Locator to locate the handle according to some constraints
and an associated Request
and last if the model is concerned a command
of course a policy install the handle.
If not, what is the other solutions to interact with graphical element ?
To allow rapid interactions, I am really interested to have some (many)
hot-points associated to a graphical part every where in my view.
As an example : if I have a rectangle model it is rendered as a
rectangle. But selected, all the hot points
(handles/tracker/locator/...) transforms it into an hedgehog. But now I
have to develop many classes (4 per kind of interactions), can GEF help me.
A second question, is it possible to redirect the arrow keyboard events
to mouse drag events ?
thanks

This already happens. Press the PERIOD key while something is selected
first.

Coool :) What I love about the GEF is when you discover features you had
planned to implement that are already there. I wonder if there is some doc
where all such features are documented - for now I think the GEF development
plan/Bugzilla/newsgroup do the task - but one document/blog/etc. that
consolidates all the features will be really useful (especially to know if
you "killed" some features by the framework misuse).
If there is no such document - may be it is worth to start collecting them,
perhaps in the newsgroup thread? These feature will be wonderful
contribution to the tips&tricks section of any GEF-based application. I.e.
how can we create a user manual if we don't know all the features ourselves?
