After layout out the contents of a graph, the connections overlap. In general, this is not an easy problem to solve. But in my case, the graph is simple and the layout would seem straight forward in the users eyes.
Created attachment 74391 [details] Logic diagram example Here is an example. 1) Import this logic diagram into a project. 2) Open the diagram with the logic editor (shipped as a GEF example). 3) Right click on the canvas and select Arrange All. The results typically show some connections overlapping. Note that the results are not always consistent. You may have to close the logic editor, reopen it, and then run steps 2 and 3 again.
Arrange all? Sounds like something GMF might be doing.
I'm not sure what this bug is asking for... improved layout in the GMF version of the logic diagram? The attachment is clearly from the GMF example, not GEF. Arrange All invokes the layout service, which can have alternative layouts provided. See the layout service tutorial in the GMF Help. Another option is to use jump links, where it's not possible to avoid overlaps. When working with GEF, the Zest component provides additional layout algorithms. Anthony, any other thoughts? WONTFIX?
This is related to the fact that you have connections to border items on shapes. Connections to shapes do not have this issue.
