I would like to know if there is any example on how to show a simple header
for a GEF editor.

I'm using today a ScrollingGraphicalViewer but i need to show a simple label
text showing some status and text of the currently edited figures.

I saw a sample with the GEF rulers but it looks much more complicated that
what i need.

You can use the status bar or the editor's description bar
(EditorPart#setDescription() or something like that). Otherwise, you can do
one of the following:
1) subclass the root editpart and create this header of yours outside of the
layered pane (if you want the header to be inside the editor and want it to
scroll) OR
2) put it in a separate lightweight system that is in another composite
inside the editor, but not in the composite that has the graphical viewer.

You can check out jbpm grapheditor implements.
The guys don't use GraphicalEditor but a normal editorpart, you can get what
you wanted.
