Hello,

I have a part with an MToolBar. I want to add to it a widget that isn't a button (let say a spinner, but it can be anything).
So far I created buttons for it by using MMenuFactory.INSTANCE.createDirectToolItem().

How can I add a widget though???
I see I can add a tool control but I am not sure how to use this option...

Thanks!!

Yes, what you are searching is the ToolControl. Have a look here for an example: http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseRCP/article.html#toolbar_advanced_toolcontrols

Ok,
My problem is that I am trying to add it to a toolbar of a dynamic part inside of my window, thus the xmi used in the tutorial is no good.
So I am writing the following code:

//create the toolbar programmatically
		MToolBar toolbar = MMenuFactory.INSTANCE.createToolBar();
		
		MToolControl button = MMenuFactory.INSTANCE.createToolControl();
		button.setContributorURI("bundleclass://org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button");  //I use button just of example in the forum
					
		toolbar.getChildren().add(button);
		part.setToolbar(toolbar);


I tried variations of the is code, like setting contribution URI and not writing "bundleclass"... nothing worked Sad

Any ideas?
