Hello everybody!
I would like to implement compartment, which will allow to move (like with no layout use) its child figures freely in major direction (eg. verticaly), but in minor direction (eg. horizontaly) shoul be aligned a have a fixed position. It should completely same as FlowLayout or ConstrainedToolbarLayout, but there will be ability to move (drag and drop) child figures. I am thinking about overiding some of layouts, but i do not know how to. Is it the right way, or is there any other option to achieve this? I would be grateful for any kind of advice.

index.php/fa/7728/0/

Thanks in advance, Ondra

Hello,

I think the simplest way is to start from the code from org.eclipse.draw2d.XYLayout, use Rectangle's as a constraints as it is normally done, with the only change that in the layout() method before the calling the child.setBounds(rect) additionally snap the 'rect' to be centered at the known vertical line.

When done with the draw2d part, you will probably need to fix the XYLayoutEditPloicy at the GEF layer to show the feedback using the same trick as above.
