Description

Not exactly. This one is for combo contributions from an editor, or editorActions extension, bug 22642 is about action sets. But it would make sense to address both at the same time. I've added a cross-link. We have an editor that lets the user change the font of selected text and we would really like to use a combobox to show the fonts available. SWT has supported a combobox in the toolbar for quite some time now. Is there any plan to support comboboxes in actions? As an aside, since Duong is now on the SWT team, should this bug be re-assigned to someone on the Workbench team? Yes, the new menu contribution API in 3.3 should support adding combo boxes to any toolbar. There are examples on http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Menu_Item_Placement_Examples although we actually just changed the <widget/> story to <control/> ... we'll be updating the wiki just after M5. We haven't re-assign Duong's bugs yet to delay the resulting spam, but Tod and I split up the areas and are monitoring them :-) PW Assigning to component owner PW This has been fixed and/or superceded by the menu contribution work - bug 154130 PW |
