Here's an example of how to create the note when you create an element.
Modify the CreationEditPolicy for the editPart corresponding to that

Maybe someone else can suggest how to add the edge.
vlad
protected Command getCreateCommand(CreateViewRequest request) {
IElementType NOTE = ElementTypeRegistry
.getInstance()
.getType(
"org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.presentation.note");
ICommand createElementViewCommand = ((ICommandProxy) super
.getCreateCommand(request)).getICommand();
TransactionalEditingDomain editingDomain = ((IGraphicalEditPart) getHost())
.getEditingDomain();
CompositeTransactionalCommand cc = new CompositeTransactionalCommand(
editingDomain,
DiagramUIMessages.AddCommand_Label);
cc.compose(createElementViewCommand);
CreateViewRequest createNoteRequest = CreateViewRequestFactory
.getCreateShapeRequest(
NOTE,
PreferencesHint.USE_DEFAULTS);
Iterator descriptors = createNoteRequest
.getViewDescriptors().iterator();
while (descriptors.hasNext()) {
CreateViewRequest.ViewDescriptor descriptor = (CreateViewRequest.ViewDescriptor) descriptors
.next();
CreateCommand createCommand = new CreateCommand(
editingDomain, descriptor,
((View) (getHost().getModel()))
.getDiagram());
cc.compose(createCommand);
}
return new ICommandProxy(cc.reduce());
}

Hi Vlad
I override the getCreateCommand(CreateViewRequest request) in
CrationEditPolicy as you suggested but...I can't understand when this
method is called...
Sorry but I have never use Command so maybe I ignore some basically
concept? Can you give me some other suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Nessun problema :)
The edit part corresponding to the element you need to create, must
install your modified EditPolicy as follows:
protected void createDefaultEditPolicies() {
installEditPolicy(EditPolicyRoles.CREATION_ROLE,
new CreationEditPolicy() {
......
}
The anonymous class overrides
protected Command getCreateCommand(CreateViewRequest request)
This method is called in the super class when it creates the view for a
newly create element.
Spero che funzioni. Altrimenti mandammi un messagio a
vlad@swen.uwaterloo.ca includendo il source code ...

Does anyone know how a note can be added programmaticaly now?
