Hello,
Has anyone an idea on how the popup toolbars in GMF are implemented using
GEF? That functionality works like this - after pausing with the mouse for a
while on a specific figure, several buttons appear next to the figure,
allowing to draw connections from that figure to another, for example.
Thanks in advance,
Mihai

It is implemented as a figure on one of the layers, probably in response to
SELECTION_HOVER, but maybe not. this has the limitation that the popup is
clipped by the canvas' client area. IMO, the correct way to do this is using
a Shell, but, it might be hard to acheive both non-rectangular shell and
native tooltip shadowing. Also, there would be the difficulties of managing
focus (really, ACTIVATE) and making sure the popup shell hides eventually.
