Unable to select editpart by clicking [message #244187]

Hi,

I am unable to select an editpart by clicking. When I click on it the
selection seems to fall through the editpart. However, when I use the
Marquee tool the editpart is selected.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi,

I found the solution. I was retuning MarqueeTracker in the getDragTracker
method. Now that I return DragEditPartsTracker, things work just fine.

However, I have another problem. I need the editpart that I just created
to be selected and thats not happening. I am not sure what the default
behavior in GEF is.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

After you create a new model object .. u can do
getViewer().setSelection(editPart) that you just created. It would select
the model object that you created.

If you dont kno the editPart related to the model object. Then you can use
getViewer().getEditPartRegistry().get(modelObject) and this woudl return the
editPart for that model object and then pass the editPart to the
setSelection method.
