mpsutil: Provide language for nodes display control with ICanHide interface
Closed this issue · 1 comments
The visualization of nodes in editors may depend on some logic that is implemented outside the language definition. By providing the ICanHide interface, the hiding logic can be delegated to other layers but evaluated in the concept editor where the language is defined. The new interface concept ICanHide should be implemented in a new language com.mbeddr.mpsutil.editor.displayControl.
Example use case (from IETS3 Variability):
The preview of nodes in editors may depend on the availability of those nodes according to the selection status in a variability model.
Unselected nodes could be hidden, reducing the cognitive load during artifact analysis.
This ticket has been moved here from IETS3.opensource, see issue 614.
