custom creation tool for composite model [message #181285]

I'm trying to implement a custom creation tool that will add a node for a
fully configured, composite model to a diagram. My application involves
node-models that have attached connectors that are arranged in 4 perimeter
compartments. I want to be able use a subclass of CreationTool with a
CreationFactory that uses the EMF-generated Factory to create instances of
the node-model and connector-models, hook everything together, initialize
properties, etc. That part is easy.

The problem I'm running into is that apparently it's not ok just to add a
new node-model to the top-level diagram model in a GMF-based editor.

Any pointers to the right way to approach this problem?

Thanks!
