Synchronizing a model and diagrams [message #168599]

Hi all,

Editing a model with Sample Ecore Editor and having one (or several)
Diagrams associated to one (or several) model elements, i tried to move
that element to another container (For example in UML model moving a
Class from a Package to another Package)... I was expecting that the
Element in the Diagram model changed its reference to the model element,
however, it didn't. Actually the Diagram Editor, have a "disabled-grey"
information about the diagram info.

I think that it would be desirable that moving an element from a model
to a new position in the model, or even into a different model, the
diagram were updated with the new element reference, wouldn't it ?.

PD:
I'm working with Europa version.

Regards,
Adolfo.

Hello Adolfo Sánchez-Barbudo,

There is a workaround for performing such kind of complex refactorings -
you should load source, target and all referencing (diagram) models into
the same ResourceSet, perform modifications (move element to the new place)
and then save all resources.
