You probably should post this question on the eclipse.tools.gef
newsgroup. Usually with a GEF editor you would use a Palette containing
tools which you drag to the canvas. You can do something similar from
the popup menu in your file-based view.

My GEF skills are really rusty. Look at the CreateCommand.execute
method. The code may look something like this:

CreateCommand create = new CreateCommand();
create.setParent(defaultModel);
YourModel model = new YourModel();
create.setChild(model);
create.setConstraint(rect);
create.execute();
