Build Identifier: 20110615-0604 Several menu items in the Java IDE are unnecessary and turn up more often than necessary. The menu should be simpler. Some menu items, like "Build path", should only be displayed when clicking the project itself. Others I never use, and suspect others too: Copy, Paste, Delete have obvious keyboard shortcuts, and otherwise can be reached from the menu. Import/Export are also rarely used, and can be in the normal menu. Some more info in the attached screenshots. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Right-click on the project 2.Right-click on a java source file 3.Right-click on a folder
Created attachment 203243 [details] Comments to the various menu entries as I use them.
Every person has different styles but unfortunately one cannot customize the context menu (see bug 21219). You seem to prefer the keyboard over the mouse, hence you easily give up on some of the menu entries. Just assume a person who (almost) never uses the keyboard and you get a completely different picture. The only two which I could be convinced to remove are: - Go Into - Open in New Window
Markus, your call.
