RulerEditPart replacement [message #141482]

Hi guys

I have a little problem with the ruler. I want my root editpart to be
ScalableRootEditPart (descendant class), but the RulerEditPart looks like
its nailed down to use ScalableFreeFormRootEditPart, in the getGuideLayer()
method:

<<RulerEditPart>>
public IFigure getGuideLayer() {

return ((FreeformGraphicalRootEditPart)diagramViewer.getRootEditPar t())

..getLayer(LayerConstants.GUIDE_LAYER);

}

So I was thinking to change that so I can use ScalableRootEditPart. The
steps I wanted to follow: replace(subclass) the RulerComposite, and make it
to provide amy own RulerEditPart, that allows Scalable Root Editpart. But it
does not look like I can replace the RulerComposite: the
createRulerContainer method in the RulerComposite is private, and thats what
I would need to override to provive my own RulerEditPartFactory.

Any ideas how to get arround this?

Thanks in advance,

Art.

Open a bugzilla. The ruler should be using the EditPartRegistry to get the
LayerManager.

It seems you have a really old version of GEF. This was fixed back in
April.
