Hello,
i have no idea if this is the place to post it (i assume it should be the
GEF newsgroup), but since it is only to help, i guess it is ok.
for my own purposes, i extended the GEF to support 3D diagrams based on
the eclipse openGL bindings. The 3D diagram supports selection
(+multi-selection), cameras, container objects, etc. Since it is based on
GEF, it also has the editparts, Figures3D (extends figure) and
editPolicies allow for all types of 3D manipulations. It is suboptimal
since the lightweightSystem2D is not meant for 3D, but with some
refactoring, it could be made 2D or 3D with great performances.
the resulting digrams (in 3D) are really neat, with all opengl effects
useable such as transparencies, etc.
if anyone is interrested, i would be willing to contribute this code,
although i have no idea how to do it since im not to familiar with the
eclispe development process and open source contribution. I also can not
maintain it, so this would be a donation. It could surely be adapted to
GMF helping to make great diagrams easily.
if anyone is interrested, just raise a flag. otherwise, at least i offered.
thanks and have a nice day!

Yeah... this could save GMF (and diagramming in eclipse at all).
Diagrams generated by GMF are currently very slow.

Hello!
I think it's a great contribution that extends GEF possibilities and we
should made it available to Eclipse community. Definitely this should be
a part of GEF project; I think that you should write a request to
bugzilla and attach source code to it. It will be reviewed and committed
to Eclipse repository. Thanks a lot!
