Dear All,

I am wondering if we can mix up textual presentation with graphical ones in eclipse?

An example is located here. It is Intentional Software Workbench:

I am writing a DSL editor, and wish to have such features if possible. What technologies shall I use?

Is it possible with Projection in JFace Text Framework? How about Graphical Editing Framework (GEF)?

Any brainstorm idea is welcomed. Thank you so much! Smile

Best Regards,

Frank Du
