Hi,

could some one help me a bit. I am trying to run some code, when my diagram view loses focus/ gains focus. In emf editor its quite easy you only need to edit partBroughtToTop or partDeactivated in the editor code. But i cant manage to do the same for gmf .diagram.

Anyone solved this?

Thanks in advance.

Jan

Some different ideas:
* From your generated Editor class, you can use
getGraphicalControl().addFocusListener().
* Add a listener on the EditorSite page ->
editor.getEditorSite().getPage().addPartListener(). In your
IPartListener, check that the part that sends the notification if your
editor.

However, you can still open a feature request against GMF-Runtime to
explain your use-case and suggest an improvement.

Mickael
