Can we use SWT Deisgner to construct a graphical editor

Postby champ1979 » Tue Feb 10, 2004 8:49 pm

I wanted to construct a graphical editor where the user can select tools (such as different shapes and connectors) from a tool bar and place them on the editing area. I was wondering if I could use SWT-Designer to do this and deliver it as a plug-in.

Or should I consider using the GEF plug-in?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Swami.

You should write your own graphical editor based on GEF.
SWT Designer is such graphical editor, but created for SWT GUI designing.
