Coloring the Squares

Question

Hi

i am trying to have 2 colors in a square, but not with a smooth transmition from one color to the other, but having a clear line in the middle that seperates the two colors. do you know where i can find that?

 

thanks

Valentin

Answer 1

I think you could trick that with using labels. See Thomas' answer on this question:

I had half the square in a different color when I had text in the label. However this is not a neat solution as it doesn't stay when you'd resize the shape....

Answer 2

You can try to use table/swim lane nodes towards this end:

(Corresponding GraphML)

Alternatively, follow the approach in Is it possible to add a third fill color in a node?
