I have a need to produce various (meta)models/diagrams, which togethe model a domain that is too large to comfortably work on a single diagram. Having created from model+diagram, I thought: I'll copy the .ecore to a new file, rename the file to something different, then generate a new diagram to that new file.
I note that the generated diagram file (apart from the expected need to lay it out differently to the auto-layout), is being viewed in the project explorer differently. It's not using the icon for Ecore diagram like my manually created ones, but an icon that I can't find in the 'New...' icon list.
Attached are jpg screen dumps for the Project Explorer view for the original file/diag (complements.x)and the copied file and autogenerated diagram file (verificationandtrades.x).
Q1 What is that new filetype (icon looks like a 'd')?
Q2 essentially I wanted to start with the content (diag + model) I had (in the files complement.x) but rename the model area (complement -> verificationandtrades) before I proceed; how is the best way to achieve that (without manually recreating the whole model + diagram)?
Thanks Julian.
