org.eclipse.gef.editparts
Class ViewportAutoexposeHelper

java.lang.Object
  extended byorg.eclipse.gef.editparts.ViewportHelper
      extended by
org.eclipse.gef.editparts.ViewportAutoexposeHelper
All Implemented Interfaces:
AutoexposeHelper

public class ViewportAutoexposeHelper
extends org.eclipse.gef.editparts.ViewportHelper
implements AutoexposeHelper

An implementation of AutoexposeHelper that performs autoscrolling of a Viewport figure. This helper is for use with graphical editparts that contain a viewport figure. This helper will search the editpart and find the viewport. Autoscroll will occur when the detect location is inside the viewport's bounds, but near its edge. It will continue for as long as the location continues to meet these criteria. The autoscroll direction is approximated to the nearest orthogonal or diagonal direction (north, northeast, east, etc.).

Constructor Detail

ViewportAutoexposeHelper

public ViewportAutoexposeHelper(
GraphicalEditPart owner)
Constructs a new helper on the given GraphicalEditPart. The editpart must have a Viewport somewhere between its contentsPane and its figure inclusively.

Parameters:
owner - the GraphicalEditPart that owns the Viewport

ViewportAutoexposeHelper

public ViewportAutoexposeHelper(
GraphicalEditPart owner,
                                
Insets threshold)
Constructs a new helper on the given GraphicalEditPart. The editpart must have a Viewport somewhere between its contentsPane and its figure inclusively.

Parameters:
owner - the GraphicalEditPart that owns the Viewport
threshold - the Expose Threshold to use when determing whether or not a scroll should occur.
Method Detail

detect

public boolean detect(
Point where)
Returns true if the given point is inside the viewport, but near its edge.

Specified by:
detect in interface AutoexposeHelper
Parameters:
where - the mouse's current location in the viewer
Returns:
true if the location is interesting
See Also:
AutoexposeHelper.detect(org.eclipse.draw2d.geometry.Point)

step

public boolean step(
Point where)
Returns true if the given point is outside the viewport or near its edge. Scrolls the viewport by a calculated (time based) amount in the current direction. todo: investigate if we should allow auto expose when the pointer is outside the viewport

Specified by:
step in interface AutoexposeHelper
Parameters:
where - the current location of the mouse in the viewer
Returns:
a hint indicating whether this helper should continue to be invoked
See Also:
AutoexposeHelper.step(org.eclipse.draw2d.geometry.Point)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
See Also:
Object.toString()

findViewport

protected 
Viewport findViewport(
GraphicalEditPart part)
