	Create Static Node	Allows you to create one or more static node(s) and its association to a parent node.
	Create Dynamic Node	Allows you to create a dynamic node and its association to a parent node.
	Create Entity Node	Allows you to create an entity node for the hierarchy. Note: Currently, only one entity can be created. This icon will become disabled after the first entity is created.

If no items were selected in the Design view, then the object creation will be triggered without the parent association, causing you to manually define the potential parent. Otherwise, the node will be created as orphaned.
