Description Hauke Fuhrmann

Build Identifier: 20100218-1602

When EOpposite References are drawn horizontally, they cannot be drawn as a straight line. The diagram editor mechanism that draws them on top of each other will always keep a central bendpoint that makes it a triangle route.

The connection has oblique routing style and smoothness "none".
I guess the special "draw on top" functionality of the Ecore diagram editor conflicts with GMF's FanRouter that adds a bend to one connection if two overlap.

See small video at:
http://rtsys.informatik.uni-kiel.de/~kieler/videos/bugs/strange_router.mp4

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create two classes next to each other
2. Draw two relations between those classes horizontally (one in each direction)
3. Make those relations EOpposites
4. The Editor will draw the references on top of each other
5. Try to move the central bendpoint

It's been fixed with EcoreTools 2.0.

Thanks for your feedback.
