In eclipse rcp adding a new gef figure doesn't invoke selection change [message #1711689]

I am building an eclipse rcp application with the compatability layer (between version 3 and 4).

I am using GEF 3. Now when I create a new GEF figure the SelectionService of eclipse doesn't invoke handleSelectionChanged() method for some reason. The resulting bug is that actions that are supposed to be enabled due to the selection change are not enabled.

By the way, the figure appears to be selected in the GUI. The only way to invoke the selection change is to click on another GUI element and then to click back on the figure. Meaning that GEF thinks that the figure is selected.

Any ideas??
