Hi

As I thought... I'm running into trouble again...
Removing an Activity from the diagram works the way mentioned before.
Removing a SquenceEdge doesn't work this way. I'm getting pretty mad
about this, there has to be a way doing it for all those BPMN objects
the same way.

Thanks
Till

Till,

It seems clear you're listening to the diagram and likely not listening
to the underlying domain model at all. Yet probably what you're
interested in are the changes to the actual domain model regardless of
how the diagram might be rendering it or referring to it. I wonder what
kinds of notifications you'll see if you did
editor.getDiagram().getElement().eAdapters().add(adapter) instead...

Hi Ed,

I think you know pretty well what kind of notifications I'm receiving
after adding the ".getElement()" ...
Thank you, I KNEW it couldn't be that complicated it seemed to be ;)
