Hi,

I use draw2d to visualize diagrams. Normally, the connections are
displayed in front of the nodes. How can I put them into the background?

Thanks a lot!

You can override the FreeformGraphicalRootEditPart#createPrintableLayers
to do this :

FreeformLayeredPane layeredPane = new FreeformLayeredPane();
layeredPane.add(new ConnectionLayer(), CONNECTION_LAYER);
layeredPane.add(new FreeformLayer(), PRIMARY_LAYER);
return layeredPane;

instead of the default implementation:

FreeformLayeredPane layeredPane = new FreeformLayeredPane();
layeredPane.add(new FreeformLayer(), PRIMARY_LAYER);
layeredPane.add(new ConnectionLayer(), CONNECTION_LAYER);
return layeredPane;

this will do the trick, also you have to set your subclass of
FreeformGraphicalRootEditPart and as the root edit part
