Vitaliy,
This is purely a GMF question that is best asked it on the GMF
newsgroup, which I've added to the "to" list in this reply.

Hi,
First of all, I would like to wish a happy new year to all !
I just note that a similar request was asked through this thread, so
here is just a link to the related issue on the bugzilla I opened a few
months ago : https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=206753
Any chance for that to be implemented/discussed ? I am convinced that
GMF should propose a "mode" for connections creation because users may
be familiar with one or the other way, not both. The best example I
could provide is from my own case : I am still making too much "self
references" because of I am used to create a connection in two steps !
But I believe many others are facing the similar problem ...
Otherwise, I didn't know that we could create a connection by double
clicking on a palette entry while two elements where selected : GMF has
plenty of hidden features ! :-)
Regards,
Jacques
