Friends here
I would really appreciate if someone could help me out

i need to draw a few figures using basic shapes like rectangle ,polygon
etc on a JPanel or consider a GUI

The figure is a little complicated.they are static figures only.

So drawing it from the program is a little complicated and moreover i need
to place a few controls like a textbox on these figures.So
programmatically drawing choice is totally ruled out.

Is there any designer like the visual editor where you can drag and drop
shapes onto the window????

I really need this ...please make the solution clear too.Any quick help is
appreciated

Thanks a huge bunch

GMF is used only when you have a model and you need the diagram code ... GEF
would be your best option. There is no drag and drop tool available at the
moment to draw your complex diagrams ...

Hope that helps.
