@martin-fleck-at Thanks for the change, it works good.

One question, in the object creation flow story we talked about have field be shown in the diagram canvas at the position where was clicked to enter the name. Something like:

Is this easily possible? Cause I think from end-user this is more user friendly.

@harmen-xb You are absolutely correct that this would have been a bit nicer and that was what I was aiming for first. Unfortunately, it requires more infrastructure (because we need the validation cycle) and also is a bit harder to deal with since we are always in continuous mode (i.e., the user can just continue to clicking on the diagram and create new entities) and we would need to prevent that or assume that it is canceling the input. Since the dialog gave us all of that for free, I went for the "cheaper" option but I can look into it deeper if you want. Now as I am writing this, maybe it already help to simply position the dialog a bit better and make it look more like a single text input through CSS. We still need to have it modal (I believe) but it might lead to nicer UX. Will look quickly into it.

@martin-fleck-at For now this is fine. Just checking whether it was an easy option.
