Hello GMF Experts!
I need your help once again. In my diagram editor, I'm using the palette to create the Notes (basically these are comments that users put in the diagram editor).
I saw that these Notes object are getting saved in the diagram file. Is there are a way to copy these Notes object in my model?
The reason is, I am not maintaining the diagram files generated when I open editor. I have code that deletes that diagram when I close the editor. So the NOTES created by the users gets wiped out once I reopen.
I was thinking to save these NOTES in my model instead then put them back if the user reopens the diagram editor.
Is this posssible?
Appreciate the help! thanks!

Hi,
As you mentioned, notes are part of the notation model and so are
stored in the diagram model.

If your users had meaningfull comments to their diagrams, maybe you
should not delete those.

If you want to keep this kind of information, then you should include
in your model a class Note with a single attribute that would store the
user comment and update your gmf diagram to include this new element.
BRs,
