Hi,
I am making a diagram editor using GEF. I want to add a brush in my
palette which can be used to draw some continous lines as it can be done
in mspaint,paintviewer,etc. How can I do it in my editor?? Also I want to
fill colors different figures(rectangle,circle,ellipse) using various
colors. How can I do it using GEF?
Regards,
Nitin Gautam.

You'll have to create your own tools to do this as there are no such
pre-defined tools. "Filling" figures is simple enough because all you have
to do is to make the figure opaque and set its background color. But the
painting brush tool is going to be much more complex. Painting on an Image
displayed using an ImageFigure is perhaps the best way to go.

As Pratik has already said, set the figure opaque and set its background
color

>provide user color chooser
see org.eclipse.swt.widgets.ColorDialog

>add pop up windows for various alerts
maybe a dialog is what you want to use. See org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.Dialog
