In case of a BorderedNodeFigure, the getBounds operation (which is used by Figure when no specific clipping strategy is used) returns the bounds of the mainFigure, i.e. the figure inside the BorderedNodeFigure. Elements of the border are not taken into acount by the paintChildren operation in class Figure. This caused bug 313985 in Papyrus, port labels that are outside a class are not repainted (it worked with older draw2d revisions).

A Draw2D application can fix the problem by using a clipping strategy returning the extended bounds. However, this is not straight forward, since a *parent* of a BorderedNodeFigure has to apply the clipping strategy and the parent might not in advance know that it contains a BorderedNodeFigure (well, it's mainly difficult, if -as in case of Papyrus- GMF generated and/or GMF runtime classes would have to change).

For applications, it would almost always (I can't think of a counter example) better, if a BorderedNodeFigure returns the extended bounds via the getBounds() operations. Application who are interested in the inner bounds can still call getMainFigure().getBounds(). Alternatively, the paintChildren operation in Figure could call the getExtendedBounds operation if the child is a BorderedNodeFigure.
