examples of right-click on an EditPart to create child objects [message #191206]

I want to be able to right click on the editor to bring up a list

Likewise, I want to be able to right click on an object an get a list of
possible child objects, select and have it created. Seems like logic,
flow, schema and shapes all use drag from palette.

Are there any examples of this out there?

Thanks.

Look at the Logic example how increment and decrement of a LED works. Instead of implementing an incrementAction implement an
createModelElementAction (or what you name it) where you create the createRequest for the new element.

You can handle this within calculateEnabled() of the action.
