Hello,

I'm doing a GMF based plugin and I'd like to remove the controls that appear by default when hovering over the diagram. I'm not sure what they're called but it's basically "Add Node" and "Click and drag to create connection". I'm don't know if this is related to GEF at all but this seems the forum closest to this issue.

thank you,
Sorin.

Hi,

You'd rather ask it on the GMF forum, but I think what you want is only to remove some editPolicies.
Create an IEditPolicyProvider, add it to your diagram using an extension point with a LOWEST priority, and put the following lines in the createEditPolicies method:
editPart.removeEditPolicy(EditPolicyRoles.CONNECTION_HANDLES _ROLE);
editPart.removeEditPolicy(EditPolicyRoles.POPUPBAR_ROLE);
