change the text on the popup connection arrow menu? [message #145484]

Hello,
I would like to know if it is possible to change the text on the text
labels on the popup menu when a connection arrow is dragged and let go
on nothing. I currently have a Note Attachement and a "Create
TranstionType to" with sub entries "New Element: myType"...

I would like to change the "New Element" and the "Create TranstionType
to" to my own custom text. Is this possible, and could you give me a
place to start looking in the code to do so.

Thank you very much.
Brian

Brian,

The label is created in the PromptForConnectionAndEndCommand. You
should be able to override this by installing a custom
ContainerNodeEditPolicy on your diagram and/or shape compartment
editparts and overriding the method getPromptForConnectionAndEndCommand().

Regards,
Cherie
