Hi Everyone,
Would someone please elaborate the steps required to create a container
editpart? I understand that my container editpart should register an
xylayout policy where I create a command to create the children that are
to be placed in it. Once the children model is created the frame work
will create an adequate editpart for the model. So far I have an
editpart who's createfigure method creates a RectangleFigure and
whenever I select a creation tool for a child object and click within
the RectangleFigure (which is my container figure) the model gets
created an the frame work creates an editpart. However, I see no visual
of the child edit part. I stepped through the code and verified that the
child editpart gets created and as well as the figure. Is there anything
I should be doing that I'm not?
Regards,
Angel Roman

Probably this child's bounds are x, y, 0, 0, so it has no width and height.
The default size of a figure is zero. The default preferred size of a
figure is its current size.

Checked the size... it's not zero unfortunately.

Thanks everyone for your support. I was setting the wrong model for the
child editpart. The editpart was not obtaining notifications when the
model was being altered.
Thanks,
