Create from Custom Feature [message #1130707]

Hi everyone,

I have one class (with its AddFeature and CreateFeature) called PositivePattern. From the CustomFeature I want to create a context menu (right click on the PositivePattern) to create another PositivePattern at the left of the first one. The thing is that in the CustomFeature I have a ICustomContext context instead of a IAreaContext that is what I use in the CreatePositivePattern (I need it for the method addGraphicalRepresentation).

The casting does not work so I wonder what can I do.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Víctor.

Víctor,

you can simply create an AreaContext object for that. In order to set the
coordinates you might query the diagram editor for its mouse location.
