Show Properties by selection in own view [message #204672]

Hi,

I'm new to the GMF and manged to create a diagram including the property
view. To the left of my editor area I placed a view, which shows the model
in a tree, to see model elements, which were removed from the diagram.

This view is implemented in an extra plugin which hast the .diagram
and .edit code as dependency.

What I want is the following: When the use klicks on an model element in my
model view the property view shows the same property pages as klicked the
same element in the diagram.

Can anybody give me a hint what do I have to do?

I tried several things but failed, because I don't understand the whole
factory/editing domain stuff which is used by the generated
PropertySection.

Thanks in advance
Hannes

Hello Hannes,

Use getSite().setSelectionProvider(<selectionProvider>); to be able to provide
selection from custom view to the workbench (inlcuding properties view).
