Hello.

I am pretty new to GEF and having some problems implementing a diagram
editor based on GEF inside a view.
I looked at the Digraph1 example and found out that it uses a
ScrollingGraphicalViewer inside the ViewPart. Can this implementation be
extended to the same degree as a GraphicalEditor (like drag, resize, add
items)?
One drawback I already see is that the GraphicalViewer doesn't seem to
have a palette (like GraphicalEditorWithPalette). Is it possible to have
tools like "SelectionToolEntry" or "MarqueeToolEntry" as actions in a
toolbar instead as tools in the palette? Is there an easy way to
accomplish this?

Best regards,
Kai

Hi Kai

Not sure I understand why your view would be editable with these features,
sounds more like you have an editor.

If this is a view, what is the content of your active editor when your GEF
view is open?

Cheers...
Anthony
