Hello all,
In my excitement to use the latest, I am in the process of upgrading our
project software from Eclispe 3.1.2 to 3.2.1. I encountered a problem that
I have distilled in the attached example and output.
The example has a FigureCanvas in a Shell. The canvas has a root figure,
and the root figure has 2 round rectangles. The example I have provided
attempts to draw a transparent rectangle on the canvas. Drawing this
transparent rectangle is as follows: when the user holds the left mouse
button down and moves from point A to point B, the rectangle is drawn based
on these 2 points.
The result using the 3.1.2 libraries is as expected - shown in
FigureCanvasTransparencyWith_3.1.2_correct.png
The result using the 3.2.1 libraries is clipped - shown in
FigureCanvasTransparencyWith_3.2.1_incorrect.png, and the transparent
rectangle is only partially shown over the 2nd child figure added.
Attached is also the source code for the snippet.
Anyone have any ideas as to what may be causing this? The same incorrect
behavior is exhibited using 3.2.0.
Thanks a bunch!
E.

Thanks for the response, Randy.
Granted. The original snippet's paint listener is not using draw2d or
GEF. I guess I assumed that it was draw2d or GEF related because when I
use a Canvas instead of FigureCanvas, the interaction works just fine.
Attached is a the non draw2d example working as desired. So I thought
(perhaps mistakenly) that it was FigureCanvas related, and thus,
draw2d. I apologize if I made an incorrect assumption.
> Why are you adding a second paint listener to a canvas that already has a primary listener (draw2d)?
As we're not using full blown GEF, we needed to implement our own
zooming functionality. The original functionality is to allow the user
to draw a rectangle to specify the zoom extents for the figure being
displayed. In my attached example, I attempt to draw the rectangle on
top of the FigureCanvas to specify just that. If that's not the proper
way to interactively draw on top of the FigureCanvas, I would be
grateful to be led down the right path.

I will admit that I do not know that that's stated anywhere in the
documentation, but that's how the SWT snippets do it. Snippet207.java
< http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org. eclipse.swt.snippets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet207 .java>
is just one example showing access to the GC via the paint listener's
paint event.
e.g.
final Image image = new Image(display, 110, 60);
...
canvas.addPaintListener(new PaintListener () {
public void paintControl(PaintEvent e) {
e.gc.drawImage(image, 30, 30);
...
...
}
}
or, from another SWT snippet:
shell.addPaintListener(new PaintListener() {
public void paintControl(PaintEvent e) {
Rectangle rect = shell.getClientArea();
e.gc.drawOval(0, 0, rect.width - 1, rect.height - 1);
}
});
Is that not the proper way to do so?
Again, I would appreciate the help in finding the correct solution to my
problem.
Thank you!

on a Control. So, for some reason, the GC is being left in a different state

You can fix the GC's clip by setting it back to the event's clip area.
Also, you could switch to using a figure on a transparent layer above your
primary figures. This is how marquees are done.

Thanks, Randy.
Setting the GC's clip did the trick. I'll look into the transparent
layer option too.
Thanks again,
