Hello,

I'd like to know whether it is possible to create recursive diagrams using Sapphire.

Example of my model looks as follows:

<root>
   <leaf/>
   <container>
      <container>
            <leaf/>
            <leaf/>
      <container/>
   </container>
</root>


The container element may contain other containers. I'd like to nest the containers to a (potentially) unlimited depth, still being able to use the features like connections between nodes (on the same level of depth).

Illustration how to result should look like:
index.php/fa/21261/0/

So far I managed only to nest simple list inside an element.

Is it possible to do this using Sapphire? Or do you think maybe different Eclipse framework could serve better for such use case?

Thank you for you replies in advance.

Our diagram definition language is fully capable of recursions. Between the two layout algorithms we support: Sequence layout and Stack layout, it should be possible to model your diagram node as shown in the attached Image.

Shenxue, I think he means a sub-diagram within a node, which we currently do not support.

Yes, that feature request describes what I need so, unfortunately, I will have to solve it in a different way.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your replies.
