Hi,

I want to implement miniature view for graphical editor in our application.
I am not able to find any help topics related to it. Is the miniature view support available as part of the Graphiti framework.

Could someone please provide some useful link for the topic.

Regards,
Anit

Anit,

there is such a view as part of the example.commons plugin, see
http://git.eclipse.org/c/gmp/org.eclipse.gmp.graphiti.git/tree/examples/org.eclipse.graphiti.examples.common/src/org/eclipse/graphiti/examples/common/outline/GraphicsEditorOutlinePage.java
method createThumbnailViewer() as as starting point.

Michael,

thanks for the information, it was really helpful.

There is a new problem i find my self in now. In my application we have two graphical editors embedded as part of the Multipage editor.

Now, after getting the thumbnail/miniature view for the editor, it does not refresh on
page change.

Regards,
Anit

Anit,

The mechanism that updates the outline page listens to changes to the
currently active part/editor, which in this case is the multipage editor
itself. When a multipage editor changes the active inner editor, there
is no such notifications. I have the same problem, which BTW is
discussed in this bug:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1917
It does not seem this bug will ever be fixed, which means that your
outline page needs to handle changes to the active inner editor itself.
