Maintaining constant gap between compartment and component figure? [message #196158]

Hello,

I have a compartment figure inside the component figure. This compartment
figure fills completely component figure. I want this compartment figure
should maintain a constant gap between component figure in all cases like
resizing of the component. Please help me how can maintain constant gap in
between?.

Thanks In Advance,
Nagesh Y.J.

Hello Nagesh,

You have to put compartment figure into the component one with corresponding
layout+layout constraints. For example, in .gmfgraph you can:
- create FigureDescriptor
- create "component" figure and specify "GridLayout" for it with propert
margin/spacing properties
- create a rectangle inside "component" figure, call it "compartmentContainer"
and specify proper GridData layout data for it
- create accessor for "compartmentContainer" figure in this figure descriptor
- use created figure descriptor as a figure for the node and as a figure
for the compartment using accessor to point to the actual compartment container
figure ("compartmentContainer")

Hello Shatalin,

I have one doubt,

> - create "component" figure and specify "GridLayout" for it with propert

Is this component figure is "figure ref" or "custom figure" or Normal
"Rectangle"?.

Thanks In Advance,
Nagesh

Try Rectangle.
