Resize now work on "freeform" layout

[wss29]

Hi @tortmayr
When I set my root node layout to 'vbox' or 'hbox' it works ok, but when I put it to "freeform" I can not resize my view, Do I miss some setting? I am unsure if this bug or "freeform" is designed to work like this.

    protected noPaddingOptions = {
        resizeContainer: true,
        paddingTop: 0,
        paddingBottom: 0,
        paddingLeft: 0,
        paddingRight: 0,
        hGap: 0,
        vGap: 0,
    };

    protected createChipNode(model: Chip): GNode {
        const chipNode = GNode.builder() //
            .id(model.id)
            .type('Chip')
            .layout('freeform')
            .addCssClass('vchip-node')
            .position(model.position)
            .addLayoutOptions(this.noPaddingOptions)
            .addLayoutOptions({ prefWidth: model.size.width, prefHeight: model.size.height });

        const chipContentNode = GNode.builder()
            .type('ChipContent')
            .addCssClass('chip-content')
            .size(model.size.width, model.size.height)
            .addLayoutOptions(this.noPaddingOptions);

        chipNode.add(chipContentNode.build());
        return chipNode.build();
    }

    configureModelElement(context, 'Chip', ChipNode, RoundedCornerNodeView, {
        disable: [connectableFeature],
        enable: [layoutableChildFeature, layoutContainerFeature],
    });
    configureModelElement(context, 'ChipContent', GNode, RectangularNodeView, {
        disable: [connectableFeature, moveFeature, selectFeature],
        enable: [layoutableChildFeature, layoutContainerFeature],
    });

Hi @wss29,
I'm not aware of any limitations of freeform in this regard. So I think your code snippet is expected to work.
I can look into this next week.

Hi @tortmayr
I want to implement my model in glsp like sprotty random-graph demo.

1. I also want to add ports to the top and bottom, not just the left and right of the node. and resize the node dynamically in glsp.
2. After trying many hours I still did not work out how to use layout to implement it and resizable, I have seen 1069 may have had the same problem
