In Sirius, Edge Mapping are defined as children of a Layer [1], the
corresponding edges will be direct children of the diagram (Sirius
internal model and GMF notation model).
But you can simply define an edge that only exist in a container : if
your source and target mappings are defined in (or reused from) the
corresponding Container Mapping and if you use the different interpreted
expressions (semantic candidates, precondition, source finder
expression, target finder expression - note that you have two different
Edge Mapping kind [1]) to compute only edges within a container. You can
also restrict the possibility in the Edge Creation tool (then even if
you are not strict on the mapping, the user will not have the capability
to create edges between elements of different containers).

Hi Maxime,
thanks for the advice, I'll try this out as soon as I can.
All the best, Nigel
