Direct Edit on creation [message #165516]

Hi all,

does anyone know of a way I can trigger a direct edit request whenever
the creation tool results in the creation of an EditPart that provides a
DIRECT_EDIT_ROLE?

For example, in the Logic example; whenever a Sticky note is added, I
want to trigger direct edit immediately.

TIA
Pat Turner

Override handleCreate in the creation tool, and get the editpart using the
viewer's editpart registry. The object created can be obtained from the
request assuming that's where the executed command got it. Send the
necessary request to that part.

Thanks Randy.

I guess you meant to say override performCreation(int button) though - I
can't find handleCreate().
