Issue with editPart.setFocus(boolean) method? [message #247237] Thu, 12 February 2009 06:19 Go to next message

Hello Newsgroup,

Good Morning!

I have an issue with editPart.setFocus(boolean) method.

I am using the Eclipse 3.4, GEF 3.4 environment.

When I invoke the editPart.setFocus(true) I expect to see a dashed line
around my figure associated with the editPart. This dashed line denotes
that the focus is over it. But the dashed line does not appear.

As a workaround, the below code snippet gives me the dashed line.

editPart.setSelected(1);
editPart.setFocus(true);
editPart.setSelected(0);

That means, the focus is drawn correctly if I invoke the setFocus() after
the setSelected() method.

I even tried editPart.refresh() soon after invoking the setFocus(true),
but still it does not draw the dashed line.

But editPart.setFocus(true) works correctly in Eclipse 3.2, GEF 3.2.1
environment.

Gef committers,

Can you please check whether this is a bug or whether this is a problem
with the way I am using the setFocus().

If you feel that this is a bug, I will add this to the bugzilla.


Thanks,
Madhu

Hi Madhu,

If you raise a Bugzilla with the snippet that works in GEF 3.2.1 and does
not work in GEF 3.4 we can check it out.

Cheers...
Anthony
