Betreff: Visio style editor view


All,

I'd like to be able to use a Visio style editor view. The user would be able
to draw a graph using visual components from a palet (e.g. activity and
product icons), or from a menu and draw arrows between them. It would be
nice if they snapped onto the icon (anchor points) and the arrows move if
the icons are dragged elsewhere. Icons (and attached lines) should be able
to be deleted.

Clicking on for icons should provide forms for details (name etc).

Possibly clicking with the right mouse button (or some other method) on the
activity icon should open a second editor view to create a diagram of
activities and products at a lower level (decomposition).

Is there a subsystem which comes somewhere close to the above? It sounds
rather specific but could be quite generically useful.

Regards, Bart

Hello Blackbox Users,

I have written such a module a long time ago. I can send it tomorrow.
There are some problems with it but I think they could be solved with
limited effort.

Regards Gerhard Marent
