I have a bean as a model object for a cell. I have registered a converter to get its string representation.

I would like to decorate that cell with a short text. This text is stored in the model bean. How can I add a CellPainterDecorator to paint that short text let's say on the right side of the cell?

The example CellPainterDecorator shows exactly what I'm looking for, but it uses image decorator and the image is not get from the cell model. It's static.

The more dynamic it becomes, the more you have to adjust.

If you want to show an dynamic icon, it should be enough to create the decorator without an initial image and register the image within a style against a label.

If you want to decorate with a text that is also retrieved out of the model you have to find a way how the decorator is able to retrieve the data. Haven't done anything similar before.

Ok, I have done it by overriding its convertDataType(ILayerCell cell, IConfigRegistry configRegistry) method
CellPainterDecorator painterDecorator = new CellPainterDecorator(
     new TextPainter(), 
     CellEdgeEnum.RIGHT, 
     new TextPainter() {
					
	 @Override
	 protected String convertDataType(ILayerCell cell, IConfigRegistry configRegistry) {
	      Object model = cell.getDataValue();
              if (model instanceof MerenyBod) {
                   // return model specific text
                   ...
	      }
	      return StringUtils.EMPTY;
	 }
     }, 
     true
);
