GEF Basic Doubts!

[aatish]

Hi,
I am developing a Graphical Editor in GEF.
In the last 4 weeks or so, I am able to draw a few  figures from my underlying model, drag (move) it, and now I just finished drawing connections between those figures. So, I am a bit relieved (though what I have just done is not even 1% of my entire project).
I am stuck at few places and am enlisting it down. Please help.

1. Since, I am able to draw connections between 2 rectangles (say), when I overlap one rectangle (say a) over another rectangle (say a), I see the connection starting from the body (heart) of 'a' and then going to 'b'. What I want is I should not be able to see that connection starting from the middle of the rectangle. It should always be seen starting from an edge of one rectangle to another rectangle's edge. (which is seen normally if I don't overlap).

2. Another is, I am drawing a simple figure. That is, a figure has a ToolbarLayout and in that figure, I have added two Labels. I want those labels to be left aligned. I don't know why for some reason it is always in the center.

Thanks,
Aatish
