Clickable figure is not receiving mouse events. [message #243405]

I have the following code:

up = new Clickable(new Label("Up"));
up.setRolloverEnabled(true);
up.setBorder(ButtonBorder.TOOLBAR);
up.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
System.out.println("action performed");
}
});
up.setToolTip(new Label("Tooltip"));

The rollover, tooltip and action listener are not working but I see the
figure. I debugged the code and the figure is not receiving any mouse
events. Any ideas what can be causing this problem?

Hi,

If your are working in GEF (means not only in Draw2d) only the mouseDown
event is forwarded to the figures. You can test this by adding to your
figure a listener as follows:

myFigure.addMouseListener (new MouseListener() {
.. methods

@Override
public void mouseUp (...) {
//nothing will happen
}
});

This because the events are dispatched by GEF. A solution to keep the MVC -
pattern is to define your own tool and overwrite some methods which handle
the mouse events and forward them via model to the controller....

something (like this .. foregive me for this hack):

@Override
public void mouseDown (MouseEvent me, EditPartViewer viewer) {
super.mouseDown(me, viewer);
if (viewer.getContents() instanceof YourEditPart) {

Point current = getLocation().getCopy();

YourEditPart part = (YourEditPart) viewer.getContents();

YourModel model = (YourModel) part.getModel();

IFigure figure = part.getFigure();

figure.translateToRelative(current);
executeCommand (new DefaultMousePressCommand (model, current,
me.button));
}
}

it still remains a lot of work!
