Hello

I have a Model A that can contains also a Model A an so one.
- A
- A
- A
Now I would like to show in the DiagramEditor everything that contains the
first Model A. But the sub Model A should displayed as a black box. After I
double clicked in the outline View on the sub Model A, the Editor should now
show the content of the sub Model A and no more the content of the Model A.

I would like to have a hierarchically model and I would like to step in to
it and step out.

What I have to do to have this behaviour?

I am tried following things:
- Add a EditPartFactory and create a TreeEditPart. Override the method
getDragTracker, and performRequest. So I can detect the double click. My
problem is to set a subelement on the DiagramEditor.
- I tried to configure it on the gmfmap file. But on it I have no Idea what
I have to do.

Thank you for your help

Urs

Hello Urs,

Try modifying Related Diagrams property for the NodeMapping of node representing
"blackbox" A element on A diagram - select Canvas from this .gmfmap model
and try generatig gmfgen model and code with these settings. See Ecore diagram
editor/Node Mapping for EPackage element there as an example.

Hello Alex

Thank you for your help. I tried to set the canvas on the Top Reference
Node --> Node Mapping but nothing happen. If I do a double click on a
SubModel on the Outline nothing happens.

I am also not sure we are speaking from the same behaviour.

If I look the ecore Editor behaviour at runtime, I cannot see the searched
behaviour.

My behaviour is the following:

I have an Element A --> MainModel, and an Element A --> SubModel. The
SubModel is a child of the MainModel. The Outline should show the whole
tree. If I do a double click (Outline) on the SubModel, the DiagramEditor
should show the SubModel and its content. But not the parent MainModel. If I
do a double click (Outline) on the MainModel, the DiagramEditor should show
the MainModel and its content. But not the content of the SubModel.

This cannot see this behaviour in any ecore Editor that I know.

Have you any other Idea?

Thank you

Urs
