In my application we are using ShapeCompartmentEditPart which contains a
ShapeNodeEditPart (fills the compartment). Inside that we are adding all
other types of nodes (figures). I want to resize the compartment everytime
somebody adds a child figure, drags a child figure out of compartment
bounds etc. to show all the child figure all the time. currently while
resizing the compartment or dragging the children out of bounds is
creating a scrollbar effect which is not very visible. also currently when
a child goes out of bounds of compartment all its connection to other
figures disappears. So I want to resize the compartment all the time so
that it shows all the child figures. any suggestions will be appreciated.

Here ShapeNodeEditPart (rectangle figure, stack layout) is the parent of
ShapeCompartmentEditPart (resizable compartment figure).

Also I have seen some solution of overriding the paintFigure method, but
that will not work in my case as in my case all the nodes added in the
compartment are not of fixed size so while overriding paintFigure method
for compartment figure i need to calculate the actual size of all the
child figures which I dont think is possible.

You might rightclick the node and choose format->autosize. then additions
and deletes of attributes will be reflected in nodes size automatically.
