I am a newbie so please bear with me.
I created an Eclipse Plugin that has a graphical editor using Draw2D
figures. I would like to add a button on the toolbar which, once clicked,
will perform some actions in the editor's view.
For example, I have some graphical objects on the editor view and I would
like to redo the layout for these graphical objects when a button on the
toolbar is clicked.
So for this, I created a class something like this:
public class RedoLayout implements IEditorActoinDelegate {
private IEditorPart targetPart;
public void run(IAction arg0)
{
targetPart =
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActi vePage().getActiveEditor();
MyGraphicalEditor editor = (MyGraphicalEditor)targetPart;
}
}
I can get a handle to the editor which by casting the targetPart in the code
above.
But now in order for me to redraw the layout, I need to be able to access
the RootEditPart of what's on the editor view. From the editor instance, how
do I get a hold of the RootEditPart of the GraphicalViewer so that I can
manuplate the properties of the graphical objects in the editor view?
Thanks for any help.

getGraphicalViewer() is a protected method and can only be called from a =
subclass. However in my case, I have the implementation of a =
IEditorActionDelegate class.

You can call getGraphicalViewer().getRootEditPart() on your Graphical =
Editor
