Hi,
is it possible to create a sort of "areas" where I can drop only certain kind of objects? This area should not be in the ecore model.

Thanks
Simone

Simone,

2 ideas, depending on what you mean with "not in the ecore model":
1) If you mean it should not be in the domain model, but may be in the
graphical representation, then you can add a rectangle (or other suiting
shape) to the diagram and restrict the add features to allow these certain
objects only to be added in that area.
2) If it should not even be part of the graphical model, you can check in
the add feature for the location and allow the add opeeration only in case
it happens in the area you want to allow.

Michael
