Hooking NewObject Wizard with Palette Drop [message #195847]

Hi,

I am implementing a Graphical Editor with palette. My palette has an entry
for creating new objects. I also have a wizard that creates these objects.
My requirement is to hookup this wizard with palette drop. i.e., when the
user press the tool in the palette and drop it on the editor, the new
object wizard should popup and take the necessary inputs to create the
object. At the end the new object figure should be placed at the drop
location. Is this a valid requirement? If yes, what is the best place to
hook up the wizard? If this is not a recommended way of doing things, what
is the alternative?

Hello Brahma,

I was searching the newsgroup for the same objective. Any solutions yet?
