Hi Folks! I am new in epsilon and eugenia so I appreciate every help about it.

I need to draw a diagram like magic draw so I need to show for every attribute in a class the name, type and value of that.

Also I need to show in a child class his parent with brackets.

Can I do that in Eugenia?

Thanks for help.

yes, I had already seen the polishing and it works well for the purpose.

Now I have another problem. I would like to show the color of a rectangle on the basis of a parameter defined in the input model (not metamodel!), for example in eol:
var p: mymetamodel!Page;

if (p.id.value='*') {
PageBaseMetaTagCompartmentFigure.foregroundColor=ColorConstants.green;
}
else {
PageBaseMetaTagCompartmentFigure.foregroundColor=ColorConstants.red;
}

It's possible to do that in ECore2GMF.eol? I need to build automatically the plugin so I can't modify the code after the creation of diagram plugin.

Thank you for your support Dimitris, I appreciate a lot and I am very grateful to you!

Gianni

Hi Gianni,

If you need the appearance of your diagram elements to be derived from model-specific information, you'll need to modify the GMF generated code to support this. [1] provides an example of doing this.

Hi Dimitris,
I am new in Eugenia and Eclipse pluging building. The code you posted me it's a little bit complicated at this stage.

I need only to modify the figure.setBackgroundColor() at the basis of a model's attribute. Where can I put this control?

I follow your tutorial but in the method handleNotificationEvent at this line (ComponentFigure figure = (ComponentFigure) this.getPrimaryShape() Wink

I get an error cast exception so I can't go further Sad

Cheers,
Gianni

Hi Gianni,

Thanks. As a starting point for your investigation on customising GMF-generated code, I'd suggest trying to first reproduce [1] in your setup (please let me know if you run across any problems while doing this). My understanding was that you were trying to do this so I was really expecting a half-baked implementation of [1] instead of your custom metamodel; apologies for any confusion caused.

Once you've done this, modifying the generated code of your editor to support your requirements should be much easier.

Cheers,
Dimitris
