Selecting a Node that has model children [message #192304]

I have a stupid question about the EDiagram example: how do you make that
when I click anywhere in a node (not just the header) that the entire node
is selected? I have an application that does basically the same thing, but
when I click on the body of my node, which is represented by different
EditParts, the whole node is not selected. I looked through all the
EditPolicies in the EDiagram example and nothing struck me as being the
thing that make the difference.

See AbstractEditPart.isSelectable (and methods that override it).

I forgot to mention that I have already used that method like in the example
;)
The strange thing is that my EditParts are basically the same as in the
example:
everyone of them uses the default implementation of
AbstractEditPart.isSelectable(), only the CompartmentEditPart returns false.
