Palette and Tree View [message #199914] Wed, 19 October 2005 23:17 Go to next message

Hi,

I have a need to create a Palette and Tree Viewer. And be able to drag the
object from the palette to the tree viewer to create new object in the tree.

I am new to GEF, read through some docs. I think I can create a
PaletteView which derives from ViewPart and create PaletteViewer,
PaletteRoot, etc. But I also like to have the flyout palette which is
attached to the view and can hide automatically or pin down. Since there is
no EditPart in this particular scenario, can you recommend the proper GEF
class to create the palette? Any examples will be very helpful.

Thanks,
Mike

You can look at GraphicalEditorWithFlyOutPalette :)

I hope You'll find your answers there :)

Cheers,Greg

PaletteView already is provided in GEF.
See TemplateTransferDragSource, etc.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for your quick reply.

I thought I couldn't use GraphicalEditorWithFlyoutPalette because I want to
attach the FlyoutPalette within a tree view which derives from the viewPart,
not graphical editor view.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Randy,

I took a look at PaletteView API. Looks like this is what I need to use.
Do you know any examples to show how to use it? Another question is this is
a palette view which has its own standalone window or can it be attached to
the tree view (view part) as well?

Thanks,
Mike
