Hi,
I'd like to implement double clicking on a node open another diagram, if
not present in same directory then create a "new" diagram with that name.
So a few points I guess:-
How do you pick up on a double click on a node.
How do you open another diagram from within a current diagram.
How to you automatically create a new diagram as I have the project (same as
current diagram) and file name.

Thanks for any pointers,

Stuart

hiiii

few pointers :

go to *.gmfmap. rite click -> load resource. load the *.gmfmap of another
edeitor i.e which u want to open on double click.

now *.gmfmap top go top node ->node mapping properties. in properties
misc->related diagram.

select the canvas mapping of another editor.be careful while selcting as
the
canvas will have same name.

now generate *.gmfgen.

go to that toplevel node on which u want to perform double click . there
under top level node a open diagarm behaviour policy will be there.in its
properties put the GenEditorGenerator.model id & GenEdiotrView.id there.

now generate the diagarm code.

Thanks for this. Had a week off but now back :-)

Just a bit of a hand with the last bit.

I see that the properties of:-
Diagram Kind:
Editor Id:
Edit Policy Name Class: <seems to be pre populated>
Open as eclipse editor: <pre populated to true>

You say set:-
GenEditorGenerator.model id & GenEdiotrView.id
I'm not quite sure where to find these Ids or what field they should go
into.
I assume GenEditorGenerator.model.id should go in Editor id (But I can't
find this class or a generated class similar)
Same with the GenEdiotrView.id << where do I find this class and where
should it go in the properties view.

Thanks,

Stuart

these are not classes.

in *.gmfgen u must be having GenEditorGenerator node.GenEditorGenerator
Node will have property Model Id. u have to set this id in Diagaramkind
property.

there is also GenEditorView in *.gmfgen & it has property Id.that id has
to be set in GenEditorView.id feild. this id shud be put in editor id.

These property value shud be of 2nd editor which u want to open on double
click.

Thanks for that.
I was a bit confused - never really edited the .gmfgen much.

The diagram I want to open is of the same type.
I set the ids mentioned below.

I run the plugin, load the resource of the sub-diagram and attached it the
the node object.
I double click on the node object and it flashes up a no access cursor
(cirlce with a line through it) and doesn't open the diagram.

Any clues ?
can you do diagrams with the same type ?

Thanks for your time.

I want to open up a new diagram of the same type.
The single click action just puts the properties into focus - standard
behaviour.
I have not customised anything around this.

Ok finally got it working thanks.

I had the top level object as a reference to my node and not that my node
was of type Top level.

Is there a way of attaching a current separately created diagram to this
node now as before I had a reference object so you could load resource and
select it.
Now its of type Top Level Node you can't do this.

I have a number of existing diagrams that I wish to load in and associate
with the nodes.

Hope this makes sense,

Stuart

I gave up using the GMF provided open diagram option.
I didn't want my users to worry about loading resources on a top level
diagram.

Sorry Im not much help here.

I tend to not close eclipse with diagrams open as it tends to cause trouble.

Hi All,

Is it possible to see in the top node what we have added in the sub node.
For example, if I have two elements in sub node, I don't see anything in
the super node. Does it exist anything to resolve that?

thanks a lot
Etienne
