Wrong palette displayed in partitioned diagram [message #226608]

I followed the instructions of the Diagram Partitioning Cheat Sheet and it
seems to work just fine.

I've got a top-level node (TopClass) and a sub-node (Subclass). I can add
TopClasses, and double-clicking opens a new diagram which allows me to add
Subclasses.

Everything works as expected until I reopen a saved diagram. The
TopClasses are being displayed, but the palette used to create Subclasses
is displayed instead of the expected one to create TopClasses. The toolbar
seems to work, but I can not create any Subclasses of course, since
TopClasses are expected at this level.

The correct palettes are selected both for top-map and sub-map (editing a
new diagram works fine). I tried to give both diagrams different Package
Name Prefixes just in case, but it did not help.

I checked this thread
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.modeling.gmf/m sg08218.html
but the solution at
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.modeling.gmf/m sg06669.html
only makes sense, when having more than one sub-diagram.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Thanks a lot,
Peter

Try reading http://wiki.eclipse.org/GMF_GenModel_Hints and making unique
all the properties referenced there as "unique" - it looks like a clash of
two different diagrams made above the same domain model.

Hello,

The wiki-article does not seem to provide the information I needed, but
your post motivated me to take another look at my model :)

The problem was a non-unique
Factory Class Name
in
Gen Editor Generator -> Gen Diagram -> Palette

Just another "Thank you" for your great support, Alex!
