When a component is created by being dragged from a palette, it
automatically obtains the focus.
However when using the connection tool, the same does not happen for the
created connection.
Is there a simple way to get the focus on the connection, without having
to specifically locate the new edit part and invoke setFocus on the viewer?
Regards
Gary

Hi Gary,
Subclass ConnectionCreationTool and override the handleCreateConnection()
method to call your selectAddedObject() method.
You can do exactly what CreationTool does, you can get the model object from
the connection request.
Cheers...
