Re: Re: [platform-ui-dev] Accessibility of Workbench toolbar

Hi,
thanx for the response.
Taking into consideration wat u suggested.. would it be possible to change the gif associated with it programatically. i.e by default the gif associated with it is declared in the plugin.xml. Is it possible to change that gif/icon programatically.
thanx

It is only possible to contribute to the main toolbar through action sets, or through editor action contributions (i.e. from the active editor). With the new actionSetPartAssociations extension point in 2.0, you can associate action sets with views and editors so that they appear when the view or editor is active, if not already visible in the perspective.

The main reason for using action sets over programmatic action
contributions is to avoid having to activate plugins in order for the
actions to appear.
There are no plans to change this behaviour. Please file a feature
request if this doesn't meet your needs.

Subject: [platform-ui-dev] Accessibility of Workbench toolbar


Hi,
I was wondering whether is it really a good idea to restrict the
user from contributing to the workbenchs main tool bar
dynamically/programatically.
I know its rather easy to do the same using the actionSets
extension point. but u need to understand that in many cases this
might not be the ideal solution.
I have been going thru many articles and news groups posts (infatc
i have myself posted queries..) trying to know as to how to
achieve this.. nobody seems to know how to do this.
Im presently using WSAD 4.0.3 which uses Eclipse 1.0. i dont think there have been any major changes to Eclipse in this respect.. Cud any one please tell me y is it not possible to add a tool bar item
to the workbenchs main tool bar dynamically/programatically. If
this can be done (i havent found any article which supports this)
then pl do let me know how. there are many people out there who
are quite intereseted to know abt it.
thanx
Ajay
