WrapLabel does not display on Mac [message #168048]

Hi,

I've got a little gmf plugin working on my xp machine. Transfering the
plugins to my brandnew mac the following feature occurs:

In a WrapLabel I can enter multiline Text as on XP, but only the first
line is displayed on Mac OS X 10.5, whereas XP displays all lines.

The label is inside a label which has a grid layout.
I tried to change the gridData of the iner label to everything that looks
like more space to me, but nothing changed. Just to say it again: This
construct works neatly on XP.

Frank,

In order to try to narrow down where this problem is, could you try
reproducing the problem by entering your multiline text on a:
1) Note in a GMF Logic Diagram Example
2) Label in a GEF Logic Diagram Example?

Thanks,
Cherie

Hi Cherie,

thanks for answering so fast. I was working on the gmf logic example first

Unfortunately the Example in the GMF updatesite

http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/gmf/update-site/release s/site.xml

seems broken to me. The Logic PDE Wizards generates 4 projects. The editor
and the edit project have the same plugin id. Assuming the edit project
having the edit plugin makes the plugins loadable but not runnable, a
runtime error says "LogicCreationWizard" cannot be loaded. Somehow I'm
stuck.

Maybe I should post this as a bug?

Can you give me a hint, how to install a working gmf logic example?

Hi,

tried the same thing in a simpler environment. Same effect, wrapping in
the editor cell works but does not show.

Am I missing something in this snippet of the corresponding editpart?

public void setLabel(WrapLabel figure) {
unregisterVisuals();
figure.setTextWrap(true);
setFigure(figure);
defaultText = getLabelTextHelper(figure);
registerVisuals();
refreshVisuals();
}

Hi,

I instaled the Logic example from the cvs.
The behavior is even worse. A note can have more hat one line, but now it
seems that the Editor cell and the label do not compute the size correctly.
The cell shows 1 1/3 and the labelview definitely only 1 line

Frank,

Sounds like this is definitely a bug if it can be reproduced with the
Logic Example. I would suggest raising a bugzilla. However, it would
be best to try this with a pure GEF example to see if the issue is with
GEF or GMF before raising the bugzilla. The GEF Logic Example can be
retrieved from CVS as well. It is located in the /cvsroot/tools
repository in the org.eclipse.gef package.

Regards,
Cherie
