Using a single representation file for multiple diagrams representation [message #1830613]

I get an issue when I try to use the same .air representation file for creating diagram representations for different models. For some reason, the editor displays all the node mappings objects of the other models imported in the Modelling Project. This problem does not occur in the case of using a Tree representation.
I am not sure if it is a bug, or because of something wrong I am doing in the creation of the diagram-based graphical editor ?

Hello,

I think that in the node mapping of your diagram description, you forgot to fill in the "semantic candidates expression" fields. This expression tells Sirius how to find semantic candidates from the parent mapping or diagram description. If you do not fill in this field, then Sirius only has the information of the domain class and will display any element of this type from all resources of the session. Note that even if you have the expected result, you should fill in the "semantic candidates expression" as it is has better performance than letting Sirius look for element of the selected type.

Best regards,
Steve
