Creating complex figures [message #178664]

Hi everyone,

I would like to create complex figures in the following way:

1.- The user draws a diagram using simple figures and connections
2.- The user choose the marquee tool and selects a subpart of the
diagram
3.- With the context menu, he selects "group figures" and the figures
and
connections selected are replaced by a new figure which has all of
this figures and connections inside (the figures inside aren't
visible).
4.- When double click on this new figure, a new editor page containing
the figures and connections gruoped must be opened.

The steps 1 and 2 are done. How can I do steps 3 and 4?

Thank you very much.

--Jose.

Step 3. You need to replace the models for all those editparts with a
single GroupModel.
Step 4. The EditPart for the GroupModel should launch a new editor with
that model as contents when it receives an open request.
