        try {
            ProjectAccessor projectAccessor = ProjectAccessorFactory.getProjectAccessor();
            IPresentation[] selectPresentation = getPresentation(classIdList);

            if (selectPresentation != null && selectPresentation.length > 0) {
                IDiagramViewManager dvm = projectAccessor.getViewManager().getDiagramViewManager();
                dvm.open(selectPresentation[0].getDiagram());
                dvm.showInDiagramEditor(selectPresentation[0]);
                dvm.select(selectPresentation);
            } else {
                // not exist presentation
                return false;
            }

        } catch (Exception exp) {
            exp.printStackTrace();
        }
