move edit box below the node

Hi team,

My requirement is to display text below the node shape, and managed to do that by editing the setTextArea code from following post:

However, when the node is double-clicked, edit box still appears on top of the node rectangle. Is there any way to move that to the position of text below?

Thanks a ton.

Hi,

You could move the JTextArea from enterInplaceEditMode event handler -

Code
Select All
void enterInplaceEditMode(InPlaceEditEvent e)
{
	JTextArea textCtrl = (JTextArea)e.getEditControl();
	textCtrl.setLocation(
		textCtrl.getLocation().x,
		textCtrl.getLocation().y + textCtrl.getSize().height);
}


If you are using a recent version of the control, currently we'd recommend adding NodeLabels to show texts outside the node -

Code
Select All
NodeLabel lb2 = node.addLabel("label 2");
lb2.setEdgePosition(2 /*bottom edge */, 0, 2 /*offset*/);
lb2.setHorizontalAlign(Align.Center);
lb2.setVerticalAlign(Align.Near);


Regards,

Hi Slavcho,

We are too invested in using Text values, but will look into labels for our next planning. Regardless, InplaceEditMode method works great for us - thanks for that!
