Hi

Well, I want to have nested palette containers in my editor in GEF 3.1. I tried all
the containers combination possible but don't work (

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: This container can not contain this type of child: $PaletteStack
at org.eclipse.gef.palette.PaletteContainer.add(PaletteContaine r.java:77)

)

A PaletteStack inside a PaletteDrawer would be nice, but also nested PaletteStack would
be ok. Nevertheless, it seems that this don't work in gef3.1.

Well, Is there a way to have some kind of nested PaletteContainers in gef3.1 (I don't see
viable to update my project to a new gef version now). What I want to have is something like
the predefined shapes in msword:

PredefinedShapes --> the only "desplegable" button in the palette
|--Stars
|--Star1
|--Star2
|--Arrows
|--Arrow1
...

Thanks

Ok, thanks. Only a question: how do I put icons in StackPalette's items.
I'm adding a CombinedTemplateCreationEntry to a StackPalette and then the
StackPalette to the PaletteDrawer but the icons defined for the
CombinedTemplateCreationEntry are not shown in the Stack.

If it can't be done, which class is responsible for showing the item's labels
(text+icon) in the palette (so I can extend it)?

(this must be done for gef 3.1)

Thanks
