I have a sash container which contains two part stacks.

<children xsi:type="basic:PartSashContainer" elementId="com.mitel.swb3.container"..
<children xsi:type="basic:PartStack" elementId="com.mitel.swb3.detailpart"..
<children xsi:type="basic:Part" ..> </children>
<children xsi:type="basic:PartStack" elementId="com.mitel.swb3.editorpart"/>
</children>

The following code

Object stack = modelService.find("com.mitel.swb3.container", application);
stack = modelService.find("com.mitel.swb3.parteditor", application);
stack = modelService.find("com.mitel.swb3.detailpart", application);

finds the container but returns null for the parteditor and detailpart. I actually want to dynamically add a part to the detail part.

When I debug the container I can see its elementsId and its two children. When I examine the children I see an elementId for both similar to PartStack@a23610

What am I doing wrong or is there another way to do this. I have set the elementId in the application model as shown above.
