Hi,

I have an .ecore and an .ecorediag file, synchronised with one another.
Everything fine so far. Recently I've deleted some model elements from
the diagram (and only from the diagram, they are still there in the
..ecore model).

How do I get them to show up again in the graphical editor? (It has been
closed in-between, 'undo' from edit menu is not an option)

Thanks & best regards
Fabian




PS: Actually I wanted to delete the elements. I didn't realise that
using the 'delete' key in graphical editor only conceals them until
errors (caused by those 'zombies') started to appear on my personal tool
chain. First I thought this was a bug, as I expected the diagram to be
an exact projection of the model. I realise that there are users which
favour this decoupled view, but I guess most users will find this
counter-intuitive. But that's just my 2 ct on it, and it's a different
issue.

Fabian,

You should be able to drag them from the outline view back onto the canvas.
