Problem with super and sub-diagram [message #236188]

Hi all,
I have the next problem and dont know how to solve it.
In Project Explorer is presented my domain model.
Its look like this (this model has been simplified for easier
explanations).

myDomain.ext
|
-Document Root
|
--School (my root element)
|
-- Section
|
--Classrooms
|
-- Classroom1
|
-- Classroom2
|
-- Classroom3
.
.
.

Double-click on Classroom (1 or 2 or 3...) should open its own diagram.
It means that every Classroom has own diagram (better to say sub-diagram
with Classrooms as ROOT element).
Off course, I first need to create the super-diagram (School as ROOT
element), but I want to hide that super-diagram.
Only what I need is tree view in the Project Explorer where I can use
context menu (right click) to create Section, Classrooms...
and when it's created the new Classroom should be created and a new
diagram in a new tab.

I hope that I was clear. Any advice is more than welcome.

Thanks & regards,
Sinisa

Hello Sinisa,

AFAIU, you have to create GMF-generated diagram editing Classrooms element
and then you create enw Classrooms (from the same UI action) you have to
create empty diagram associated with it. See generated ???NewDiagramFileWizard
as an example of new diagram initialization code.
