Re: [gef-dev] bug 243385 on Draw2D (can not draw big draw2d figure on li

[Randy Hudson <hudsonr@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Ben,

This issue is not a limitation of draw2d. The limitation can be shown using
just an SWT snippet which paints on a Shell.  BTW, this problem has been
reported before, but it's not trivial to search for in bugzilla, since it
was moved to SWT.

I've marked your bug as a duplicate of:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=146179

Thanks for reporting the bug.  Often, it helps if you can reduce the
problem to its essence (for example, removing GEF's graphics and seeing if
the problem goes away), then you might have more success in searching for
an existing bug report.  Even if you open a duplicate, at least filing it
against the right team means they'll find the duplicate faster than anyone
else would.

If you are trying to fill a large rectangle, a workaround might be to
intersect the rectangle you're painting with the current clipping, which
will bring it within the 16-bit limitation.
You might also try turning on advanced graphics all the time.  Maybe Cairo
doesn't have the 16-bit limitation?

If either of these workarounds works, or if you have more doubts, please
update the original bugzilla to keep the history in one place.,
