Hi Christina,

I didn't get an answer but here is my solution. In my GraphicalEditor in 
createPartControl I hooked into the global redo/undo actions like this:

@Override
public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
  super.createPartControl(parent);
  IActionBars actionBars = getEditorSite().getActionBars();
  actionBars.setGlobalActionHandler(ActionFactory.UNDO.getId(),
    new Action() {
      @Override
      public void run() {
        if (getEditDomain().getCommandStack().canUndo()) {
          getEditDomain().getCommandStack().undo();
        }
      }
    });
  actionBars.setGlobalActionHandler(ActionFactory.REDO.getId(),
    new Action() {
      @Override
      public void run() {
        if (getEditDomain().getCommandStack().canRedo()) {
          getEditDomain().getCommandStack().redo();
        }
      }
    });
}

Kind regards,

Georg
