I was going to suggest editing the underlying model, but you say you've
already tried that. Did you call viewer.refresh after adding an object?
Try calling viewer.refresh(parent) where parent is the new parent of the
object you're inserting (eg, ContentProvider.getChildren(parent) returns
something different than it did before). If this isn't working, I'd
focus on debugging why- using a JFace viewer while editing the SWT
control can get pretty buggy.

Many thanks for your help (Veronika too) - it turns out it was a bug in my
code, whereby I wasn't updating then entire model tree hierarchy
correctly. I have fixed this and it now seems to be working.
Thanks once again - it's support like this that keeps the whole thing
flowing!
Cheers!
