Hi,

I needed to create cutom View (any graphical object) without reference to the model (just like you can insert Notes from the palette).

Is that possible? If so, how? Any example?

Thank you for advice.

Martin

Hello,

The created view will be remove on refresh by the diagram synchronization. I do not think that it will work on an unsychronized diagram either. Why don't you use the diagram Notes if you want to display an element that is purely a graphical information?

Steve

Hi Steve,

it's a good idea to insert the Notes (Text) element from the palette.

But I would like to insert the Notes into the diagram programmatically.

How?

Hi Martin,

You can use the helper org.eclipse.sirius.diagram.ui.tools.api.util.GMFNotationHelper.createNote(Diagram, String) or the command org.eclipse.sirius.tests.support.command.CreateNoteRecordingCommand. You can find an example in org.eclipse.sirius.tests.unit.diagram.modeler.ecore.design.EntitiesDiagramDeleteFromDiagramTests.testDeleteNoteFromDiagram().

Regards,
Steve
