REPLACING standard con labels with ShapeScripts

[stao]

Hi everyone
i used the search function and found many threads with interesting content but actually didnt found a solution for my problem.

here is my code:

Code: [Select]

shape main {

                noshadow="true";
            h_align = "center";
            lineto(100,0);
            
}      

shape middletoplabel
      {
            h_align = "center";
            v_align = "center";
            print("<<destroy>>");
      }
shape middlebottomlabel
      {
            h_align = "center";
            v_align = "center";
            moveto(20,0);
            lineto(80,100);
            moveto(80,0);
            lineto(20,100);
            print("#name#");
      
      }

it works somehow but not in a way i want it.

in the label visibility it shows still the name of the connector (middletoplabel) and the stereotype (middlebottomlabel) .
and the default position of my new labels are NOT the same as the default positions of the normal unedited labels.




1.
it seems that if i edit labels i only edit the visual output of the label not the label itself

2.
If i edit labels the default position of the edited labels are not the same as before.

(After editing middlebottomlabel and middletoplabel have the SAME default position)


2 questions.

1. How to set the default position of the edited labels?
2. Not so important. How to REPLACE the label not only the visual output?

How to REPLACE the label not only the visual output?

Can't be done with shape scripts which only change the appearance of a connector. You will need to change the connector properties: double-click it.

ok
and what about the wrong default positions of the edited labels?
is there any possibility to set the default position in the shapescript?
or is this an EA bug?
