Moving models with arrow keys [message #183780] Tue, 07 June 2005 22:15 Go to next message

I have read that you can use the period key to toggle the handles for
resizing/moving a model on the canvas, and for an example I found on a web
page, it works great. But for the plugin I am creating, it does NOT bring
up the handles, and I have no idea why. Any suggestions? I don't want to
attempt to rewrite something that is built into GEF.

If anyone has examples of using the arrow keys to move a model around
(which is my aim at this point), I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Look at the logic example. Set a breakpoint in
SelectionTool#handleKeyDown() and follow the code.
