Connections not following moved Figures/Nodes [message #249521]

Howdy,

I'm new to the world of eclipse plugins and GEF.

GEF will be perfect for my project.

To build my GUI modelling tool I started with the Logic GEF example and
tweaked it to to get what I want.

However, in my hacking it appears I've broken something and when I move a
component (a graph node) around, the connectors that join it do not follow.

I've racked my brain for a while and carefully examined both the Shapes
example and Logic example, but I can't for the life of me work out what's
different that would cause this not to work.

I can successfully draw connetions that persist into the model and figures
are created. see http://twitpic.com/9s4yv

However, when I select and move one of the blocks, the connector does not
follow. see http://twitpic.com/9s52b

I really don't understand what's causing this.

I would really appreciate some help in understanding this issue and how to
resolve it.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Vijay

Dammit, I think I worked it out.

I wrote my own ConnectionAnchor impl that was using an old reference to
the Figure rectangle, instead of fetching the dimension from the figure...

3 hours later...

I probably should have worked this out earlier, but it's late...and I ran
out of coffee...
