Hi everybody,

I'd like to know the best way to access (and modify) some properties of
a model element programatically. I suppose these changes will probably
occur in the project "*.diagram" ...

I'm new in GMF and I don't know the best way to access my model element
from this project ...

Thanks in advance for any help.

benren.

That depends partly on when/where you want to modify the properties?

E.g.: If you need to access them in the *EditPart classes you can access
the notation model elements via #getPrimaryView() and your model element
with #getPrimaryView().getElement().
