Hi all,

I want to build an editor for XML files that describe screen layouts.
In order to lay out the various controls I would need something like the SWT
GridLayout so that I can set a number of columns and the figures children
are layed out accordingly.

I searched the javadoc but couldn't find an appropriate class.
Does anybody know of one - or can anybody give me some hints of how I could
implement such a class?

Thanks in advance!

Somebody wrote a GridLayout for Draw2d.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=71684

It hasn't been tested or verified by the GEF team yet, so use at your own
risk. If you find any problems, please post on this bugzilla.

Thanks a lot!

This is exactly what I needed. In fact I already found a bug related to
figures with borders and posted it to the existing bugzilla entry.

It's nice that you're finding some good use for the layout.
If you find any more bugs please let me know via the bugzilla entry.

I'll wait for a bit before rolling another zip file. I'd like to
include any other bug fixes that people find.

There may also be issues with the sizing in the area of trim, with
respect to scrollbars (ie scrollpane). I commented out the code
that did the sizing for this and haven't revisited it. Feel
free if you wish to experiment.
