*'''package: org.eclipse.gef4.cloudio.ui'''
 
 
The [[#Cloudio.UI:Root|{Root}]] package provides an SWT widget ([[#TagCloud, Word|TagCloud]]) and a JFace viewer ([[#TagCloudViewer, ICloudLabelProvider|TagCloudViewer]]), which support rendering of word clouds.

==== TagCloud, Word ====
 
A <code>TagCloud</code> is a special org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Canvas, dedicated to display a tag cloud. It expects the to be rendered words and related properties (weight, angle, color, font) to be represented as <code>Word</code> input elements and can be created as follows:
 
 
<source lang="java" style="border-style:solid;border-color:#f2f2f2;border-width:1px;padding:10px;margin-bottom:10px">
 
public static void main(String [] args) {
 
  final Display display = new Display();
 
  final Shell shell = new Shell(display);
 
  TagCloud cloud = new TagCloud(shell, SWT.NONE);
 
 
 
  // Generate some dummy words - color, weight and fontdata must
 
  // always be defined.
 
  List<Word> words = new ArrayList<Word>();
 
  Word w = new Word("Hello");
 
  w.setColor(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_DARK_CYAN));
 
  w.weight = 1;
 
  w.setFontData(cloud.getFont().getFontData().clone());
 
  words.add(w);
 
  w = new Word("Cloudio");
 
  w.setColor(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_DARK_GREEN));
 
  w.setFontData(cloud.getFont().getFontData().clone());
 
  w.weight = 0.5;
 
  w.angle = -45;
 
  words.add(w);
 
 
  shell.setBounds(50,50, 300, 300);
 
  cloud.setBounds(0,0, shell.getBounds().width, shell.getBounds().height);
 
 
  // Assign the list of words to the cloud:
 
  cloud.setWords(words, null);
 
  shell.open();
 
  while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
 
    if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();
 
  }
 
  display.dispose();
 
}
 
</source>
 
 
The result should look similar to this (String positions are assigned by random):

==== TagCloudViewer, ICloudLabelProvider ====
 
A <code>TagCloudViewer</code> is a special org.eclipse.jface.viewers.ContentViewer, that renders a tag cloud. It is internally based on a [[#TagCloud, Word|TagCloud]] and enhances the functionality of the tag cloud: it is possible to select
 
and deselect elements by mouse click, to zoom in or out using the mouse wheel and to display tool tips on words. The [[#TagCloudViewer, ICloudLabelProvider|TagCloudViewer]] expects an org.eclipse.jface.viewers.IStructuredContentProvider and an <code>ICloudLabelProvider</code>. The words that are to be rendered in the [[#TagCloud, Word|TagCloud]] are inferred by queuing the <code>ICloudLabelProvider</code> for labels of the elements returned by the org.eclipse.jface.viewers.IStructuredContentProvider. The properties of the words (weight, color, font, angle) are retrieved via the <code>ICloudLabelProvider</code> for each word as well.
 
 
A <code>TagCloudViewer</code> can be used as follows:

The result will look similar to this:

=== Layout ===
 
 
*'''package: org.eclipse.gef4.cloudio.ui.layout'''
 
 
The [[#Layout|Layout]] package provides the contract ([[#ILayouter, DefaultLayouter|ILayouter]]) for algorithms that perform placement of words during tag cloud generation, as well as a related default implementation ([[#ILayouter, DefaultLayouter|DefaultLayouter]]).
 
 
[[File:GEF4-Cloudio-UI-layout.png|302px]]
 
 
==== ILayouter, DefaultLayouter ====
 
An <code>ILayouter</code> is used by a [[#TagCloud, Word|TagCloud]] to compute the actual placement of words inside a given area. The <code>DefaultLayouter</code> places words similar to the algorithm used by [http://www.wordle.net Wordle].
 
 
----
 
 
=== Util ===
 
 
*'''package: org.eclipse.gef4.cloudio.ui.util'''
 
 
The [[#Util|Util]] package provides a two-dimensional tree structure to store non-overlapping rectangles ([[#RectTree, RectNode, SmallRect|RectTree]]), a custom rectangle implementation ([[#RectTree, RectNode, SmallRect|SmallRect]]) with short precision used by it (which will probably be replaced with [[GEF/GEF4/Geometry#Rectangle|org.eclipse.gef4.geometry.planar.Rectangle]] in the future), and a [[#CloudMatrix|CloudMatrix]], which represents a drawable area within a tag cloud through a [[#RectTree, RectNode, SmallRect|RectTree]].
 
 
[[File:GEF4-Cloudio-UI-util.png|505px]]
 
 
==== RectTree, RectNode, SmallRect ====
 
A <code>RectTree</code> is a two-dimensional tree structure to store non-overlapping rectangles that are represented through <code>RectNode</code>s, which are internally based on a short-precision rectangle representation (<code>SmallRect</code>).
 
 
==== CloudMatrix ====
 
A <code>CloudMatrix</code> represents the drawable area within a tag cloud (and information about which word is placed at which coordinate), internally based on a [[#RectTree, RectNode, SmallRect|RectTree]].

Introduction

The GEF4 Cloudio component provides support for visualizing tag clouds within a dedicated SWT Canvas or JFace viewer. It is internally decomposed into the single Cloudio.UI module. There are also a couple of undeployed Cloudio UI Examples. The user documentation is provided in terms of the GEF4 Cloudio User Guide.
