Install Nebula Visualization Widgets in WB [message #1445309]

Hello,

i would like to add the Nebula visualization widgets to the WindowBuilder:

http://www.eclipse.org/nebula/widgets/visualization/visualization.php

If i use "Add Component" in the context menu of the "Palette" i can select
the different visualization figures ("Add component" -> "Class name"....) and add them to the Nebula palette.

The attributes are shown and i can alter them in the WB properties if i drop the figure on a canvas.

However the figures are indicated as non visual and they are not embedded in the default canvas. WB simply creates a variable in the class and adds attributes if i change them.

My question is:

How is it possible to embed the figures so that that one can place them on the canvas like a regular swt widget.

Thanks in advance for any answer.

You would need to convert them into actual widgets or wrapper them with an actual widget. Aside from the unfortunate naming choice, the Nebula Visualization Widgets are not actual widgets from the SWT point of view.
