Hi there! My question is how to customize the behaviour of CreateChildCommand/Action. As I've looked into the code, I saw that the command is actually create before the action run method. However I want to provide user a nice dialod window, where parameters of created object should be setted up. What is a right way to achive that?

You'll have to create your own action for that. A dialog can always be
canceled but EMF commands, once executed, should just complete. They're
not intended for intermediate user intervention. The intended design is
that the user creates an object and then configures it (via the
properties view, though you can use EEF to have nice forms). They can
always undo if they don't like the result.
