Is there any way to prevent Propertie Dialogue

[stao]

I search for a way to prevent the opening of the properties dialogue when i create a specific element from the toolbox.
Do you have any idea ?

Look at the documentation for Repository.SuppressEADialogs.

I tried but for some reason it has no effect.

public bool EA_OnPostNewElement(EA.Repository Repository,
EA.EventProperties Info)
        {
            Repository.SuppressEADialogs = true;
            return true;
        }

i tried both with false and true but nothing.


PS.

I use EA 8.0.856 build 856
where is my mistake?

What happens if you put that code into the EA_OnPreNewElement ?

nothing


::Update

If i create standard Elements like "class" from the toolbox the properties stay close but if i create a stereotyped element it opens.

I have the same problem. My Version is 8.0.855.
The version history (see http://www.sparxsystems.com/products/ea/6.5/history.html#804) suggest me with "Resolved issue where 'Suppress EA Dialogs' setting was ignored when creating profiled elements." that there was in this version a very similar problem.

Have anyone a soulution for this problem.

What I want to do is to display for my profile elements a own property window during creation and while editing.
Is there a other way to do that?

i "solved" the problem by adding only the standard uml types to my diagram opening my own property window and setting the stereotype after that.
luckily i have only one stereotype per uml type.
very annoying issue.
