Spell checker like decoration (~~~~~~) for org.eclipse.draw2d.Label [message #167480]

Hi,

I want add a decorator to the org.eclipse.draw2d.Label in my
GEF Editor.

The decoration should looks like the 'speel checker' decoration
in StarOffice, Word, ...

Like:

this is an errror ....
~~~~~~

If it possible to add such a decorator to a org.eclipse.draw2d.Label?

Or should I create the Deco-Label with a toolbar-layout with a label and
a dotted line?

greetings

Andreas Herz

You can subclass label and get the Text bounds, and draw the line
underneath. You won't be guaranteed that there is enough space for the line
unless you extend getPreferredSize.

Thanks....I think your way is the 'light weight'.

LayoutManager+Label+Line is to heavy for such a simple
requirement ;-)

greetings and thanks

....I think I attach 'MyOwnDrawLineBorder' to the Label. The Border have
enough space....I think
