Hi,

What is the typical use of EditPart.PeformRequest function? Is it used to
trigger application level commands (such as opening a dialog box)? Or is it
for something else?

Thanks,

David

Yes, that is a good example. It is used for whenever you want to delegate
the implementation of something like that to the editpart. For some apps
this feels "cleaner", for others it is required because editparts may be the
means of extending an editor's capability.

Thanks, is there any example of an implementation using performRequest to
trigger an application level command?

Thanks,

Yes, press F2 in the logic example while a "label" is selected, will send a
request to perform direct editing. See DirectEditAction and how it is used
in the Logic Example.
