Gosh, I don't have a lot of experience with this type of thing. I hope someone else has some clue, because I won't even know where to begin. Maybe Tom will read this and have an idea...

Hello,
The EditingDomainActionBarContributor.java class defined in the EMF plugins overrides the Windows CUT/COPY/PASTE actions' keyboard shortcuts (CTRL-X, CTRL-C, CTRL-V) with EMF's own.
This is correct as long as the actions are performed on the tree. However, I implemented an editor based on eclipse forms, with text widgets (Windows native) handling the COPY CUT PASTE actions with a right click of a mouse. As the mouse actions work fine and interact with the windows' clipboard, pressing the keyboard shortcuts for the same actions in the text widgets will call the actions reserved by EMF .. This is problematic as the CTRL-X, CTRL-C, CTRL-V shortcuts are overridden with the EMF copy, cut, paste actions for the entire editor.
Is there a possible way to register the actions for the editor's tree only? (See picture)
I have a CustomEditingDomainActionBarContributor.java replacing a few small things from the original EditingDomainActionBarContributor.java class, but I don't want to manage the registering / unregistering the copy, cut and paste actions when the tree is in focus or not.
Any help appreciated
Thanks,
Mircea
