Hi,
The pallette in the GEF is perfect to insert single objects
into the working area.
I have done this for my GUI editor with Buttons, Labels, InputFields....
Now I want insert a 'Button Group' (Ok, Cancel, Info) at once.
After I have insert this three buttons, all of them should be selected.
AND:
----
- All buttons should have a seperate Model,EditPart,Figure,.....
- There is no Child/Parent relation between these buttons.
- Single Buttons can be deleted, modified....
How to implement a 'Macro' to insert more than one existing EditParts/Models/Figures in
my Editor?
Is this possible with one Command (depending for the UndoStack)?
greetings
Andreas

You could start with a special creation factory, which the target editpart
would recognize and return a command which creates all 3 model objects. You
don't necessarily have to use the factory's create method, or you could have
it return a List instead of one item.
Selecting would be tricky. Maybe your factory could return an ArrayList,
and in a creation tool subclass, you could check for a List and lookup all
editparts instead of just the one.
