Hi,

I need to set the position of the node when it is copied (action Paste). The clipboard contains DNode nodes (DDiagramElement) However, LayoutConstraint can only be set to Node type node (org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.notation.Node). When I try to find a Node from DNode when I copy using SiriusGMFHelper.getGmfNode(diagramElement), it returns null. Is it possible to set the position of the DNode node?

Thanks for every advice.

Martin

Hi,

This is not directly supported. Bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=508178 contains in attachment an example of a workaround, which uses a Java service calling on internal Sirius APIs to associate "layout data" to the DNode that will (should) by used when the view (GMF Node) will be created later. You can try and have a look, but be aware that this is not officially supported and there is no documentation beside what is in the ticket.
