I'm trying to vertical center a multiline textbox within a RectangleFigure in GEF. It needs to be ajusted on resize. This would be best done with a layout, but I can't figure out how that works. I'm adding a BorderMargin to the parent FlowPage and changing the margin when the RectangleFigure gets resized. Unfortunately, at that particu...
Hi all My name is Oleg, I'm writing advanced feature - visual comparison of BPEL files. I would like to use regular editors in "compare" panes (left and right) As a first step I just want to open two editors (one for each file) Later I can 'hack' them a little, make new parts green, deleted parts red etc... So my problem sounds pretty ...

We will be using SVG files to represent figures. What's the correct structure of EditParts and other GEF related classes in such a case? We were th...

For example SWT's StyledText supports that directly (getLocationAtOffset), but none of the Draw2D text figures supports this. Any ideas how I could calculate the position with the given methods of TextFlow? Regards, Kai ...
We have a ContentOutlinePage that includes a GEF TreeViewer. Simply put, by calling setContents on the TreeViewer, GEF builds TreeEditParts using an EditPartFactory, as is typical for GEF. Internally, the GEF TreeViewer creates a Tree control. public Control createControl(Composite parent) { Tree tree = new Tree(parent, SWT.MULTI...

I do see the GEF n Draw2D plugins i...
In JBPM 3 plugin for Eclipse, bendpoints are represented using four integers: <transition name=""> <label x="5" y="-10"/> <bendpoint w1="36" h1="-37" w2="43" h2="39"/> </transition> In the source code, there is a class called Bendpoint, which stores two Dimension objects whose values are represented by w1, h1, w2 and h2. This seem...
