Can Editor use a picture(ex, jpeg) as its background [message #166480]

Hello everyone,

What i want to realize is:

my editor use a special picture(for example, a jpeg picture) as its
background. Currently its background is "ColorConstants.white"

I really don't know how to, is it relevant to gef rootEditPart & Layers?

Thanks in advance,
zbw

Yes, this is possible. How exactly depends on what you want to do. Do you
want your picture to stay stationary in the background? Or you want it to
stretch or tile to fill the entire layer (and so the background would scroll
when the viewer scrolls)? For the former, you can paint the image in the
root editpart's viewport's paintFigure() method. For the latter, you can
paint it on one of the layers.
