Hello,
I have a border node that when double-clicked creates a new node in the model and on the diagram. I would like that new node to be drawn right next to the doubled clicked border node but not attached to it. Currently it draws the new node in the upper left corner of the diagram.
Am I able to control where the new node gets drawn? If so, how would I go about doing that?
Thank you,
Bailey

Hello,
After the new node creation, you should update its coordinates (using
the GMF node element) by updating its bounds (getLayoutConstraint() method).

Steve

Hello,
In fact when I was saying after the node creation, I was thinking into
the same tool/service that creates the node, not a different action. You
should give it a try, because I am not entirely sure that this is not
too soon for the Sirius refresh.
For the node creation listener, you can add a ModelChangeTrigger that
would react on node creation.
Another way, but a little bit overkill, would be to implement a specific
layout using this tutorial:
