[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Auto-layout (arrange all) of border items

[peter_l@xxxxxx (Peter Lang)]

I've got parent-nodes with border items. These border items are the source 
of links to other parent-nodes.

When I use "Arrange all", only parent-nodes are arranged, so child-nodes 
are likely to be on the wrong side of the parent-node and conflicting with 
the parent-node or other links.

See image for better understanding:

I believe, that with GMF 2.1 these child nodes have been rearranged (at 
least in some cases), while they do not get moved with GMF 2.2. I'm not 
absolutely sure if it worked in 2.1. though...

Does GMF support this behavior?

If not, do you think it's better to start with custom layout or to extend 
BorderItemLocator?

Thanks,
Peter
