[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Scalable Polygon not drawing

[RefuX <refux@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

First I apologize if my question is really stupid, I'm new to the GMF game.

So I have some Polygon made up of TemplatePoints drawing just 
wonderfully. However it doesn't resize with the EditPart it's part of. I 
figure what I need is to just replace the Polygon with a Scalable 
Polygon, then (hopefully) it will get scaled in proportion of it's EditPart.

However this Scalable Polygon never gets drawn :(

Not being one to be scared off, I have a dig about in the code. Turns 
out for the case of a Scalable Polygon, the Polygon class isn't used, 
but a little custom subclass of Shape is generated. So in this inner 
class I stick a breakpoint on the fillShape and outlineShape methods... 
turns out these are never called! :( :(

More debugging later and it turns out it never gets drawn because 
getBounds() doesn't return the correct bounds.
Looking a Polygon class, getBounds if overridden and returns the correct 
bounds, but the class generated for my Scalable Polygon doesn't. It DOES 
have a method called getTemplateBounds, which looks just like what i 
need....

So anyways, I'm a bit confused as to why the Scalable Polygon doesn't 
override getBounds and return the correct size...


I figure being the newbie I am, I'm way off the reservation by now, so 
before I end up lost in the Jungle I figured I'd send a shout out for 
help! :)
