Transparent Compartments ...or Drawing outside an edit-parts "bounds"? [message #192857] Mon, 16 June 2008 13:27 Go to next message

Howdy Folks.

I am trying to achive a puzzle-like setup for the
nodes on my canvas. More precisely, i want my nodes
to look like parts of a puzzle, which I accomplished without
any noteworthy problems. The problem, however is
"putting-these-parts-togehter", because the "upper" edit-part
always hides parts of the lower edit-part. especially the part, where
the two puzzle-parts are connecting!

Theoretically, I figured out 2 ways.

First: make the background of my edit-part-figure transparent...
....is this possible???

Second: draw lines outside the edit-parts bounds...
....is this possible???

I'd rather prefere the second alternative, but I haven't figured
out whether it is possible at all! Does anyone have
any suggestions? I'd be more than glad!
Tanks in advance!

Marco

Hello luetze,

Sure - just call setFill(false)/setOutline(false) for your node containing
figure or use corresponding properties in .gmfgraph model.

Not sure about this.
