Q: Greying out objects/connections in a diagram? [message #229040]

Is it possible to grey out objects and selections in a diagram in GEF?
Does anyone know of any example code that does this?

The idea is sort of an "inverse highlighting". Ie. to have everything
except the currently interesting stuff to appear in a "disabled"
state.

Thanx!

I think you can do this by adding a SelectionEditPolicy to the editparts
and then in the hideSelection() and showSelection(), you can get the
editpart registry and disable/enable/change color edit parts.
