I have a graphical editor that was manually created using GEF. I am
currently investigating whether or not I might be able to use GMF to
automatically generate my diagram.
A major problem I see right away is the generated-GEF editor is always
freeform (i.e. users have the ability to place items anywhere). However,
my current editor uses ScalableRootEditPart, not
ScalableFreeformRootEditPart. So basically, I need to have a fixed diagram
(i.e. entire canvas is simply a top-level node with compartments).
Is there a way to use GMF to create a diagram like this that is not
freeform?
