Hi all,

I am having difficulty with associating my own editor with PropertySheet.

My editor holds a Composite which can hold one to many Composites.
Every time user select a composite, I would like Property Sheet to show
its properties.

Do anyone know how to associate own Editor with PropertySheet ?

PropertySheets are configured when the selection changes in the workspace, and the selected item supports the IPropertySource, then they will be displayed in the Properties View.

So, you need to (a) provide a IPropertySource for your composite(s) (so that it knows which properties to display) and (b) ensure that the selection is being tracked by the Workspace (which it might not if you're rolling your own nested hierarchies).

There's an article on Eclipse about writing properties views at http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Properties-View/prop erties-view.html
