It seems that the only way to create nodes using the palette is by first
clicking on the tool from the palette, releasing the button, then moving
the mouse to the creation point on the canvas (a "+" sign is displayed
with the mouse cursor) then clicking again to actually create a new node.
I have a user request for "traditional" drag&drop where you would
left-click on a palette tool, move the mouse to the drop point (keeping
the mouse button pressed) and release the mouse button in order to
create the node.
I've found two bug reports that claim that drag&drop is available
(resolved/fixed):
"Can not add elements to diagram doing drag and drop from palette"
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=113580
"[req] Support drag-n-drop"
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=114224
Is this possible in GMF 1.0.1? Is this a behavior inherited from GEF
that can't be changed?
Thanks,

Thanks Cherie for the reply, it indeed works fine at the runtime level.
I don't know why it's not working for generated diagrams. I've entered a
bug report: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=165452
Thanks,
Jerome
