anyone use SnapToGrid? [message #234593]

I have a Graphical editor part that uses a GridLayer. On this GridLayer are
various draw2d rectangles. The user can drag these rectangles around on the
GridLayer.
I would like to use the SnapToGrid class to properly snap the rectangle onto
the grid squares when the user is done dragging. Any good example code out
there for implementing this behavior?

Hi Brian,

The GEF Logic Example demonstrates snap to grid support. Check out the View
main menu to turn on the Grid and Snap to Geometry.

Cheers...
Anthony

Anthony,

I must have an older version of the GEF logic example. There is no
snapToGrid functionality in the GEF logic example I had downloaded. I
noticed the source files have 2002 dates on them. Could you tell me where I
might get an updated version of the logic example?

Thanks, Brian

Nevermind. I downloaded the latest GEF 3.3RC1 and I can see the SnapToGrid
examples in the latest Logic example. Thanks again.
