Hi Thomas, good question. Thinking about it for a minute, my first answer is "probably not". I'd guess the tree views use SWT (or JFace, for that matter) tree widgets. The Image Export Plugin, however, uses org.eclipse.draw2d.Graphics objects to redirect the (Draw2D) standard IFigure painting. However, I haven't really hacked a TreeView-like editor, yet, so I'll dive into the GEF sources on the weekend to check. If you got any information regarding TreeViews and the SWT render machinery, please let me know.
Cheers, Thomas
P.S.: Are you using Eclipse 3.5? I only migrated my workspace to 3.5 a few days ago and haven't checked any farther than compile erros as yet (there weren't any). Does the plugin work on 3.5?
