Is there any way to control the visibility or enablement of a wizard? [message #331111]

Hi,
I want to make a wizard not visible/enable if the current selection is
of some type. But I don't know how. Is there some suggestions?
Thanks.

How are you registering the wizard? Let's see the appropriate part of
your plugin.xml...

What kind of wizard? There are 3.

The extensions don't have any kind of enablement clause, although you
can filter the types of selection that your wizard sees.

Normally, you look at the incoming selection and if it is not
appropriate, simply provide a way to update the selection on your first
wizard page (and disable the next/finish button until they do).
