How to select all layers at once [message #1802203] Mon, 04 February 2019 02:28 Go to next message

Hi,

In diagram I have 5-6 layers. We can see the required layers once we checked in tabbar. I want to add one more option in that layers list called Select all so that we can select all the layers at once. Can I do that by adding service / external java action. Or is there any extension for adding one layer for those list.

I added one layer with name 'Select all'. But for layer we can not add any service method and java action. Can anyone help me on this!!

Hello

It looks like an enhancement. We could effectively imagine something like check butons in the drop down button list with a special Select all check button.

But for your case adding a fake layer just to have a new entry in the menu list does not seem a good idea.
You could instead add a "Popup Menu" under the "Tool Section" in the odesign in order to have a "Select All" action available in contextual menu in your diagram.

Then you can call a java service to activate all layers.
The pointers below will be helpful to get all layers and activate them
org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.business.internal.metamodel.helper.LayerHelper.getAllLayers(DiagramDescription)
org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.tools.api.command.ChangeLayerActivationCommand

regards
Laurent
