Hi all
Hope someone can tell me what is going on with my project .

I'm working with a Plug-in project that add a dynamic submenu to a view
context menu (from a different plugin project).

It was working fine till I decide to add to the LOCAL ACTION menu (see xml)
icon and tooltip description .

Now .
The compound contribution item is called correctly . returning n items . but
when I go with the mouse near the sub menu it becomes gray .

There is no error in the .log file .
I have started the plugin with -consolelog option . no error

Sure I have changed something . but what can I do to find the error?
Thanks
Kar

Where is this used, it's not clear from the XML

There doesn't appear to be anything obviously wrong with your XML ...
are you on 3.4.1?

Hi Paul,

my eclipse version is 3.3 ... and honestly I believe there is nothing wrong
with my code too ...
but I know that I had to recreate a new project ... copy the code again ...
and now the submenu was working correctly.

I could not find any error explaining why the submenu item was turning gray.
Thanks anyway
