regarding Issue #48: I would like to set specific ID's

[InannaInai]

Dear freegroup

I need to set specific ID's to the rects, how else would i know to data I want for that specific rect.

How can I do that?

[freegroup]

why did you open a new issue?!

the rect has already an unique id.

[InannaInai]

Because you are closing the ones that are in my opinion not solved jet.

the rect has already an unique id.

How can I use this id?
I want to assing a data from a database to the rects.
I want to create a pattern with drag and drop, assign data to every rect and connection in this pattern, save this pattern and reload it again.

is this possible with draw2d?

You can add comments even on closed issues

your code has a syntax error

 init: function (attr, setter, getter) {
    this._super(extend({
      bgColor: this.DEFAULT_COLOR,
      color: this.DEFAULT_COLOR.darker(),
      width: 50,
      height: 50,
      id="thisIsMyID"
    }, attr), setter, getter)
    this.createPort("output")
    this.installEditPolicy(new draw2d.policy.figure.RectangleSelectionFeedbackPolicy())
  },

id="..." is wrong - use :

you can use figure.setUserData(....) as well. please read the API docu for details.
what did you mean with pattern?

[InannaInai]

I used it with : id:"thisIsMyID", made a mistake when tried to reproduce it.

Thank for the tip with the figure.setUserData(....), must have missed it. Am kinda edgy today...
sry for that
I think my problem is, that I can't see the id with the browser, therefore I had assumed that the rect did not get the id. Tried it with alert and it worked.
