Hi!
I have an EditPart consiting of a simple rectangle. It should be possible
to create a name for it. What I want to do is similar to the LogicLable,
but the text in the Figure should be placed in the middle of the figure
and it should be possible to make the text multi-line and keep centered.
I would be thankful for any help.
Best regards
Ilja

Thank you very much Randy!!! It works fine. The BorderLayout in the parent
figure is responsible for the centered vertical alignment and your
suggestion aligns the FlowPage centered vertical.
Just a remark, when I put a LineBorder around the TextFlow, I get a
feeling that the text is one pixel left shifted, because the vertical line
of the first letter is in the same position as the border line.
Thank you for your fast help.
Best regards

I'm not sure if inline flow figures like textflow expect to have borders.
You should be able to set the border on the page or other "block" text
figures.

It's not really a problem, but it looks some strange. It happens only with
a certain width of the parent figure (RectangularFigure in my case). My
TextFlow is in a FlowPage and the flow page has horizontal alignment set
to CENTER. As you suggested. The RectangularFigure has an BorderLayout and
the FlowPage is added with CENTER constraint. At some width of my rect
happens following:
Instead of:
|
| E...
|
I see only:
|
E
|
and this looks strange.
I'm not using any borders at all, but if I add a border to my text flow, I
can see it permanently.
Best regards

RectangleFigure does not expect to have children. None of the shapes change
their client area based on their line thickesses.
Are you using RectangleFigure, or a Figure+LineBorder? Use the latter and
it should work.
