[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Re: Update existing diagrams after model cha

[Holger Kremss <Holger.Kremss@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yeah, this would work, but our editor has only one file for model AND 
diagram. So I can't 'delete' the diagram easily, I would have to modify 
each file and I wonder, if there isn't a better solution while 
initializing the diagram. The other drawback is even worse, because our 
diagrams may be quite large (multiple pages printout) and I'm afraid 
re-arranging every diagram manually is not acceptable for the customer.
