Hello,

I want to have a new tab in my properties sheet who show just a selection of properties about the selected element in my diagram.

I have look in the gmf gen file the properties sheet entry, but I don't found how to use it to have custom properties with the core properties.

Can somebody help me?

Hi Dewas,

the contents of the "Core"-Tab are controlled by EMF. Hence, you'll need to look into your genmodel file(s):

* Browse to the element's feature that you want to hide.
* Have it shown in the properties view.
* There you'll see two categories "Ecore" and "Edit".
* In the "Edit" category you can set the "Property Type" to what ever you need (writable, read-only, or none).

After you changed that you have to regenerate the edit code in order to see the effect.

Ok, thanks Rob.
It should be convenient for me at the moment, I can select at least the elements which I wish to show.

It's a pity that this choice will apply to all the diagrams and sub-diagram connected to my genmodel.
Is it possible to use several genmodel for the same model ecore and to keep synchronized my several diagrams?

I'm afraid it's not possible as the genmodel generates your "global" domain model.

But you can change the XXXPropertySection.java that's generated into your diagram plugin ("sheet" package). Its getPropertySource() method should return different IPropertySources for your diagrams. The default is to use EMF's adapter factory to create the IPropertySource depending on the genmodel configuration.
What you probably should do there is to ignore the getAdapterFactory(object) call and use your own diagram specific custom factory to create the IPropertySource. Have a look at your generated XXXItemProviderAdapterFactory in your EMF edit plugin to see how it's done.
