for (int c = rect.x + 10; c < rect.width + rect.x; c+=10) {
graphics.drawLine(c, r, c, r);
}
}
}

The sectionfigure is a container.Now I want to draw a element in the
container and make the element snap to grid when I drawing it . how I can
snap to grid ?
Thanks a lot!
Waiting for your answer.

Hi Sunny,

there a many ways to implement a snap-to-grid.

One is, you create your own ChangeConstraintCommand.
The Command receives the desired coordinates,
transforms them into the snapped coordinates
and then applies them to the model element.

An other way is to extend a layoutmanager (Freeform) which
transforms the coodinates.
Perhaps in the setConstraint or layout method.

Regards, Ingo

Open the Logic editor.
From View menu, enable snap-to-grid.
voila.

See the new class SnapToGrid

My gef logic exmaple's version is 2.1.1 and when I run it ,I can not find

Why?

My puzzle is that in my sectionfigure , I realize the background grid by
drawing line and these lines are actual some dots. When I draw a new
element ,I don't know how to get these dots coordinates , so I can not set
new location for the element.
How I can get the dot(background grid) coordinate?
Please give me some advice.
Thanks very much!

If you insist on implementing your own snap to grid, since
2.1.1 doesn?t support it (but the latest integration builds do),
a little hint:

int newX = GRIDSIZE * (int)Math.round ( (double) oldX / (double)
GRIDSIZE ) + OFFSET;

Also a good point to implement this is in your editpolicy?s
#getChangeConstraintCommand().
