Hi,I am a beginner of Graphiti. By looking the tutorial from here, I'm trying to create a plug-in for graphiti diagram. I added the code in Features->AddFeature in the new plugin project I created. However when I create a test project and add a graphiti diagram, my plugin is not seen in the list.

Can anyone provide me step by step instruction how to create a plugin for a new shape?

do you have registered the Diagram Type Provider and Diagram Type?

When I was creating a new plug-in project in java there was an option for "Use template plugin for graphiti diagram". After I chose it, there is an automatically created plugin.xml file in the project. I didn't touch that XML. should I modify it?
