Ordered Compartment with drag-and-drop functionality [message #149418]

Hello,

I'm a bit stuck. I want a compartment where my child nodes are shown in
the same order they occur in my model. Alright, this can be achieved by
setting "List Layout" to true. But some of the child nodes should have
to be resizable and I need some drag-and-drop functionality to rearrange
the child nodes (preferably with a neat animation that makes place for
my moved child). This drag-and-drop action should of course be reflected
to the model.

What is the best (read least effort ;)) to achieve this.

Kind Regards,
Gregory

Hi Gregory,

I would start by using a FlowLayout. Did you try this before?
(Set "List Layout" to false and add a FlowLayout to the compartment in
gmfgraph.)

Cheers,
Nicolai

Hey Nicolai,

I've set the "Layout Type" of my Compartment's "Figure Viewmap" to
FLOW_LAYOUT, but this doesn't change anything in the code.
Setting "List Layout" to false allows me to physically move the child
nodes, but this doesn't change the order in the model.

Regards,
Gregory

I just tried it myself and realized that it only works for figure
nodesthemselves (not for compartments).

I'm sorry I can't help you more than that since I don't know much
aboutGMF.

Hopefully someone else answers your question!
