DiagramEditor default behaviour [message #795271] Fri, 10 February 2012 09:17 Go to next message

Hi,

I'm developing a tool for analysing CIM (Common Information Model) models. To allow the user to analyse the model in a class diagram I want to use Graphiti to create such a diagram editor.

Analysing means that there should be no chance to change the analysed model. So diagram elements should be not deletable.

I've already tried to disable the DeleteFeature by returning null in my FeatureProvider. This hides the Delete entry from context menu but there is still a Delete entry in Eclipse Edit menu. When I click this entry something happens in background (diagram editor is marked as dirty and there is a new entry in undo-list) but the diagram elements remain as expected.

How can I remove the delete entry in Eclipse Edit menu and how can I set the keyboard shortcut of "Remove" to DEL?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Best regards,
Stefan Wülfrath

Have you tried to return a Delete Feature that returns false on canDelete?

Hi,

thank you for your quick reply!

I've tried it and it works as I would expect:

Deletion is disabled for all elements but there is a disabled "Delete" button at every diagram element. Do you know how I could hide this button?

And how can I change the default action of DEL keyboard shortcut?

Stefan
