How to control size of drawing canvas [message #1817017]

Hi,
I am trying to control size of sirius drawing canvas, it seems the size of the Sirius diagram depends on the position of the element on the bottom-right corner of the diagram, but once diagram is full and user tries to resize, first user needs to put a node at bottom right corner and then drag again to resize diagram which does not look good during the demos.
Can someone please let me know how can we add a listener and change size of drawing canvas so that it automatically resize based on some event.

Thanks in Advance

Hi Mohit,

You might try to a some kind of anchor node :
- node mapping with the same domain class than the diagram and aql:self as semantic candidates expression
- with a specific style and a small size.

Then you might add a ModelChangeTrigger or a pre-commit listener to react to changes on diagrams at the GMF level. I would try to detect the add/move/resize of GMF views (LayoutConstraint/Bounds/Size) elements and if needed retrieve and update the location of the anchor node to automatically move it in order to resize the diagram.

Regards
