Cannot add figures to my application [message #58141]

I'm new at Gef. I wrote a Gef application that displayes a few draw2d
figures (that went fine). I added a palette with a creation tool, in order
to enable the user to add more figures after the editor starts (I used the
Shapes example). The problem is that after I press the creation tool
button, and then move the mouse to the spot where I want my new figure, I
get a "not allowed to put here" cursor all over.

Does any know why this happens ?
Thanks a lot.

Most likely there is not an EditPolicy that understand creation. Look at
the integrated help and read about EditPolicies and the Layout Role.
