| Re: [platform-swt-dev] GC for a Canvas, how to draw OVER children controls |
|
Hi,
sorry if this registers as another thread,
something went wrong with my subscription to this email list, althought I assume
that the subject testing will still recognise it and place it in the right
thread.
Anyway,
I understand the the GC drawing will be clipped to
mainCanvas, what I meant was is there a way to tell the GC the lines over the
controls that are children of mainCanvas. Currently it draws the lines 'behind'
the controls.
so is there a zIndex setting or something
similar.
Regards
Steve

Not currently. All drawing is clipped to the
control.

Hi there,
I have succesfully implemented some code where, if I drag and drop from a label in one canvas (cnv) to one in another (cnv2), the parent canvas' (mainCanvas) PaintListener will draw a line from one label to the other. so cnv1 and cnv2 are descendants of mainCanvas. The problem I have, is that mainCanvas' GC draws the line behind the controls. Is there a way to get the GC to draw the line over the child controls?? Any help would be appreciated Regards Steve |
