Node with rotating Image [message #1429597]

Hi,

I want to create a bordered node with an Image whose orientation should change depending on which border it is attached to.
I didnt know how to do this myself, which is why I looked into the obeo UMLDesigner, where this technique is used for the required interfaces.

I imported the plugin which provides this functionality into my workspace and use the extension point from within my plugin, where I addded an top-image (for testing purposes an arrow) and an ID. When I use this as a custom style from inside my project I get a green square displayed as the style instead of the black arrow I used as image.

What could I be doing wrong?
The official UMLDesigner uses a Conditional Style which wraps the rotableNode with a "[container <> self.eContainer()/]" expression. but the default style looks the same as the conditional style so I dont see the difference this would make. Nevertheless I tried to do this as well, but I got the same result as described above.
I attached images of the relevant part of the VSM as well as the plugin.xml:

I could not link to the plugin before due to forum constraints:

Hi Who,

If you use customStyle and if you have read the Sirius manual, you
should create your own EditPart which will be associated to the id of
your custom style. And creating your own EditPart is standard GMF.

Best Regards.

Sorry to reopen this topic.

I'm now trying to include a rotating image.

I got the content of the UML-Designer repo and I found one interesting class : org.obeonetwork.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.extension.rotatable.RotatableImageBasedOnFirstSourceConnectionEditPart

This seems to fit totally with what I want, but the issue is that I don't know how to put this style on my image.

What I would like to do is to add a custom style (with ID = the EditPart) inside my WorkspaceImage node, but it doesn't let me do this.
Obviously I looked into the official documentation, but didn't find any answer.
Has someone already experienced this?
Thanks
