Hello,
I'm using the default commands org.eclipse.ui.edit.cut,
org.eclipse.ui.edit.copy and org.eclipse.ui.edit.paste (and the default
handlers) for text in a extended StyledText class overwriting the
methods cut, copy and paste.
In my RCP application, they are always enabled, but I want them to be
enabled only if it is reasonable like in the Eclipse IDE itself:
Copy and cut should only be enabled if there is some text selected and
paste only if there is some text in the clipboard.
How is this possible?
Thanks

Hi Wim,
thanks for your answer, but actually I don't use my own handler.
Actually the default handlers are used. I thought, I can avoid to
implement my own handler, because I'v overwritten the copy, cut and
paste methods of the widget. That works ok, except of the described
problem.
The Eclipse IDE itself enables and disabled the states of cut, copy and
paste, too. So I thought I don't have to anything except adding the
default commands to my menu bar and overwriting the widgets methods.
But perhaps, it's better to use own commands with own handlers?
Regards,
Helmut

Hi Helmut,
Sorry for the delay. No it should not. I guess your widget does not play well
in a Q&A that the default handlers play and are therefore by default enabled.
The enabled state of the handler can be checked by a propertytester. Does
this give you some clues to investigate? Please send me mail if you reply.
