Description Volker Börchers CLA 2013-11-05 04:32:00 EST 
It seems not to be possible to invoke the formatter on multiple Xtext source files at once, e.g. in the way whole Java source trees can be formatted via the context menu of the Project Explorer (Source -> Format). The Project Explorer has no such option and the keyboard accelerator Ctrl+Shift+F does only work in the editor (only in context Editing Xtext Source).

Suggestion:

- Add Source->Format to the context menu of the Project Explorer when one or more Xtext source files are selected and process all at once.

- Perhaps: Make Ctrl+Shift+F work in the Project Explorer.
