Extending the PropertyView [message #1651386]

Hi,

I want my editor to provide a customized PropertyView. There is already a plugin providing propertyContributor, propertyTabs and propertySections. I added it as an dependency to my Sirius project and launched a runtime instance but it does not seem to get loaded.
Is this the correct way to modify the property view with Sirius and if so, what did I do wrong?

Hi Jim,

Do you have related error/warning messages in your console when
launching? I need more details to help you. Could you provide your
example to test.

Note that you can look at EEF [1] to customize your properties view.

Best Regards.

Thanks for your quick reply!

The propertyContributor for my project is not built with EEF but by hand. I still tried to use it by changing the contributorId of the three extension points to "org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.ui" but the behaviour does not change. Neither do I get any errors/warnings.
I will try to create my own property view customization following the instructions that you linked to. Maybe I can see what I did different with the existing customization.

When I dont find the error myself I will provide an example, but I need to supply the meta-model, my editor and an example model plus their dependencies so assembling this will take some time.
