Missing Lyo Validation menu option

[andylapping]

Trying to walk through the workshop using the 'OOB' Lyo Designer (not the plugin version) on Windows Server 2012
At this stage: https://oslc.github.io/developing-oslc-applications/eclipse_lyo/toolchain-modelling-workshop#validate-model

1. Screenshot shows a menu for Toolchain Editor - I dont have that
2. Text doesnt match sc reenshot anyway - it says to double-click the xml file and then right-click
3. I did that and I dont have Validate - only Generate Complete Code (see screenshot
   
   )

Found it - the workshop instructions are incomplete. Right-click and Open With .. Other .. OSLC Toolchain Model Editor. I downloaded the completed workshop sample from GitHub and found that opened in the correct editor. However that sample doesnt validate :(

Hi andylapping,

The instructions are out of date, so pictures and some details might have changed. I hope I can update them soon. So thanks for the reports.

There might also be some features that are not yet documented.

Thanks ! It would be good to have an actual worked example with real data and step by step instructions - what we have now is a workshop that gives general instructions and a completed sample - and I'm trying to marry one to the other (to create such a step by step guide) and failing   Cheers Andy

Thank you! Feel free to submit a fix:

Right-click and Open With .. Other .. OSLC Toolchain Model Editor.

I usually prefer to open the diagram and use the right-click menu for this:

Could you please link to the exact place you used for the download? We kept a bunch of old content in place to avoid breaking the links, but now we clearly see that this strategy is deficient.
