GMF Wizards [message #197758]

Hello,

is there a way to sort the domain model elements in the GMF wizards
alphabetically? I have a domain model with about 200 metaclasses which
are all listed in the wizards in some seemingly arbitrary order, which
makes it very tedious to use the wizards at all. Also, for large models
it would be nice to have the possibility to collapse all model
elements in the gmfgraph and gmftool wizards.

Thanks,
Lutz

Hi,

Did you look at the Eclips Bugzilla if there is a request for
enhancement like this? If there isn't, could you sumbit one?

Hello Lutz,

If you so much classes and want them in your editor you may want to have a
look at the GenGMF project:

An other solution might be ATLflow, it uses annotations at the ecore
model to generate the corresponding gmf artifacts via model transformation.
