| Can't Make Pop-up Menu ... uh pop-up [message #1725115] |

I have a diagram representation I'm trying to specify. I have successfully made it draw my model and I can create some basic stuff and connect some basic stuff. Your newest tutorial sets are very good. Thank you!
Now I want to demo that I can make a generator and fire off some code generation from the picture. I have some of this working as an External Java Action already.
In my tool Section, I have added a Pop-up menu with the Precondition literally set to the word "true" (because I have yet to figure out the very powerful, but initially very confusion expression/query language). The precondition is expecting a boolean right?
There seems to be no amount of praying, cursing, or selecting anything I can do to make this mysterious Pop-up menu... pop-up an appear.
I've put an Operation in the Pop-up menu. Nothing.
What basic thing am I missing here? I just want a basic pop-up menu to pop up on Right Click that has a single Operation called "Generate Stuff" that calls an External Java Action (which I can do already).

yes it expects a boolean. You can let it empty to set it to true by default

Check that you popup Menu and Operation action have a valid id.
A good practise is to launch validation (right click then validate) on
odesign element to verify that there is no error into it.

Check that your extension has correctly been declared in your plugin
..xml [1] and that plugin is deployed on you runtime.
