[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Accessing Underlying Objects from outside th

[wayneage@xxxxxxxxx (wayneage)]

Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to access the model objects from say a 
menu, or even a button on the pallete.
I know you can do this from the canvas with edit policys and such, this 
makes sense becasue the request origninates from the graphical element and 
you can access it's model part, and therefore the other model objects.

But can this be done outside the canvas?

Any help is appreciated,
Wayne
