[news.eclipse.tools.gef] fillGradient on a Figure

["Stefan Knieling" <prooteus_NOSPAM@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've got a Figure which contains a title bar and a content pane. The 
content pane is of type 'RectangleFigure'. I would like to fill the 
content pane with a gradient color.

Overriding the paintFigure(Graphics g) method did not succeed:

paintFigure(Graphics g) {
   super.paintFigure(g);
   g.fillGradient(this.getContentPane().getClientArea(), true);
}

Then I thought of overriding the method fillShape(Graphics g) of 
RectangleFigure but that did not work either. The colors aren't changed 
in any way.

Could someone please give me a hint.

Thanks in advance.
Stefan
