Adding elements [message #1853356]

Hi,

I am new to xtext and trying to add element in between two elements in Xtext editor dialog and it is getting updated wrong upon save.

Example:
In dialog I have

Element1 {
Properties;
}
Element2{
Properties;
}

If I add another element in between these two like

Element1{
....
}
Element3{
.....
}
Element2{
...
}

Upon clicking ok in dialog element 3 will show the icon and properties of element 2.

Can we add elements in between existing elements in Xtext?

Please help me to understand this.

Thanks & Regards,
Aparna M

In dialog I have
Element 1{
Name:Element1;
}
Element2{
Name:Element2;
}

Now I am doing control space after element 1 and create Element3
Element 1{
Name:Element1;
}
Element 3{
Name:Element3;
{
Element2{
Name:Element2;
}

Now upon clicking ok in dialog in explorer my values show like
Element1
Element3
Element2

Here I have icon for the elements and Element3 will show icon of Element2

Can we add elements in this way in Xtext?
