Ecore Tools/FAQ

Installation Problems

When I open the graphical editor, it seems that the editor used is the GMF one.

We have noticed some conflicts between these two graphical editors : we need to look deeper into GMF code to analyze its origin. While waiting for a fix on this issue, you should disabled the GMF Example feature which should prevent this to happen. [Fixed in 0.8.0M4]

Views problems

Models content is duplicated in the Explorer View

In fact, there are two content providers defined : the one coming from Ecore Tools, and another one defined in the Ecore Diagram example available with GMF. Fortunately, you can disable one of them to avoid duplication : in the Project Exporer, select "Customize View..." from the pulldown menu.

Graphical problems

Icons are not visible in my diagram

This is related to the bug 209802 which also depends on the bug 211851. You should turn antialias OFF until this issue is fixed : Window > Preferences > Ecore Tools Diagram > uncheck the 'Enable antialiasing' option
